[issue10912] PyObject_RichCompare differs in behaviour from PyObject_RichCompareBool ; difference not noted in documentation

[Eli Bendersky]

Eli Bendersky <eliben at gmail.com> added the comment:

I agree that the difference in behavior between the two functions is unfortunate, but that's unlikely to change now.

The least we can do is make the documentation precise. I'm attaching a proposed patch to Doc/c-api/object.rst

Nick/Terry/Georg - if this looks OK I can commit.
