Michel Albert added the comment:
Hmm... after thinking about this, I kind of agree. I was about to state
something about the fact that you could consider networks like an "ordered
set". And use that to justify my addition :) But the more I think about it, the
more I am okay with your point.
I quickly tested the following:
>>> a = ip_network('10.0.0.0/24')
>>> b = ip_network('10.0.0.0/30')
>>> a <= b
True
>>> b <= a
False
Which is wrong when considering "containement".
What about an instance-method? Something like ``b.contained_in(a)``?
At least that would be explicit and avoids confusion. Because the existing
``__lt__`` implementation makes sense in the way it's already used.
