Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettin...@gmail.com> added the comment:

This whole section has become a mess an is now more complex that the underlying 
code.   Adding more caveats, special cases, and atypical examples will make it 
worse (rather like the U.S. tax code, another example of bad technical writing).

I recommend the whole section be rewritten, extracting the most general rules 
and with examples that cover the general rules.

There can then be brief separate paragraphs for language lawyers that cover 
what makes NaNs and None unusual (none of the comparison logic special cases 
these value -- their interesting behaviors are intrinsic to the object itself).
