Oh dear, to each his own.
It seems strange that you are deciding at the point of use which
operators are "appropriate." If there are inappropriate operators,
they shouldn't be declared in the package, and shouldn't be primitive.
I can't think of a type where "<" is appropriate but ">" is not.
Can you give a realistic example? This seems like overkill,
IMHO.
