Huh?  Those operators are already defined to perform arithmetic
comparisons.  How could they be used for lexicographic comparisons
too?

So if it's not possible to support arithmetic comparison and string

comparison at the same time, how about adding a prefix "s" representing

"string" to distinguish? -seq, -sgt, -slt, etc, though a bit weird.
