I wonder. If opCmp is supposed to imply partial ordering, then that means opCmp should imply the antisymmetric property of partial ordering. http://mathworld.wolfram.com/PartialOrder.html

a <= b and b <= a implies a = b.

That would mean for us that opEquals being generated with opCmp == 0 would make sense.

Without that transitive property, it would imply only that it was a preorder, but not a partial order. http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Preorder.html
