 A set is greater than another set if and only if the first set is a proper
 superset of the second set (is a superset, but is not equal).
 
+Instanceas of \class{set} are compared to instances of \class{frozenset} based

 The subset and equality comparisons do not generalize to a complete
 ordering function.  For example, any two disjoint sets are not equal and
 are not subsets of each other, so \emph{all} of the following return

 Since sets only define partial ordering (subset relationships), the output
 of the \method{list.sort()} method is undefined for lists of sets.
