See also #11986, which this report is essentially a duplicate of.

I think it may be time to implement `math.ieee754_total_order` (after suitable bikeshedding about the name), so that one can do

   sorted(my_list_of_floats, key=math.ieee754_total_order)

and

   max(my_list_of_floats, key=math.ieee754_total_order)
