I am aware of this. It is just unexpected that other.__eq__(self) calls self._eq(other)
As a user of that rich cmp method I would have expected it to call other._eq(self). Raising a not implemented error seems nice. :) Anyways I believe it should be better documented if you want people to use these functions.
