I got your point. So it seems that two pieces of documentation are not equivalent: https://docs.python.org/3/howto/sorting.html#odd-and-ends > The sort routines are guaranteed to use __lt__() when making comparisons between two objects. https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list.sort > This method sorts the list in place, using only < comparisons between items.
