   FWIW arrow-rs consistently follows the totalOrder predicate as defined in 
the IEEE 754 (2008 revision) floating point standard. This is pretty 
fundamental to things like the row format and would be a substantial effort to 
change, if even possible.
   
   Aside from being an actual standard, as opposed to following what some 
databases happen to do, having a consistent total order is IMO quite compelling.
   
   FWIW there is some ongoing discussion around adding this total ordering to 
parquet as a way to order statistics (the current approach makes statistics 
unusable for floats).
