do_richcompare() has a comment (at Objects/object.c:689) that reads:

/* XXX Special-case None so it doesn't show as NoneType() */

This refers to the following error message:

>>> 3 < None
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unorderable types: int() < NoneType()

This is a common error that comes up while ordering/sorting, and NoneType() is potentially confusing, so I find the request reasonable.
If the consensus is favourable, it should be implemented, if not, the comment should be removed.
