Hello The correct behavior of functools.total_ordering depends on a check performed with an assert. Attached patch changes it to a test that always runs. Since it’s a kind of protocol error, I went for TypeError but you may disagree. Regards | ||

The max(roots) line that follows will raise its own ValueError when given an empty input. Will mull over your patch. I may just delete the assert line, leave it as-is, or apply something like your patch (but with a ValueError). | ||

Ok. It won’t have a user-friendly error message, though. You may be interested in a minor doc patch in #5341. Regards | ||
