I strongly agree with this suggestion, unless there's some unique behavior with TimerHandle objects which would prevent this from being viable. IMO, the @total_ordering decorator should be used as much as practically possible. Individually specifying all of the rich comparisons when we don't have to adds a significant maintenance cost.
