Thank you. Another case is in round trip processing of JSON or YML. Other cases are where you would prefer an OrderedDict over a dict. I think the method would help clarify things because it would make it obvious that it is for ordered comparisons while the existing == does not do that. eg. something like: d1.compare_ordered(d2) or: d1.compare(d2, ordered=True) # ordered could be by default True
