That's not true, Ruby for example has operator overloading, and has no problems with different meanings of x>y and y<x (but i don't know a core class that does that). Also, PHP already breaks the transitivity rule for the equality operator ($a == $b and $b == $c does not imply $a == $c), so there's not much new evil if a user can, by loading an extension, break the symmetry of the comparison operators, IMO.
