This also affects various computations in the `homology` directory, since a common practice is to take a simplicial complex and discard everything above dimension 1, and then look at the resulting graph. If the vertices in the original simplicial complex have labels which are not sortable in Python 3, these computations fail. So I would very much appreciate it if someone who knows the graph theory parts of Sage could investigate this.
