BTW should DateTime die if both items are not a DateTime objects? Why I ask is the backtrace led me to this in Template::Stash:sub _dotop { my ($self, $root, $item, $args, $lvalue) = @_; my $rootref = ref $root; my $atroot = ($root eq $self); my ($value, @result); where the test for ($root eq $self) was causing the exception in DateTime because one object was not a DateTime object. If they are not both DateTime objects can we state that they are not equal?
The reason it dies is because I think it's reasonable to assume that comparing a DateTime object to something else is an error in the caller's code. Either a typo, or a function/method returning something other than what they expect, etc.
What TT2 is doing is rather wrong. It should probably be using something like Scalar::Util::refaddr.
