You can compare two arrays for being equal - but you can't compare them for being unequal !
I'll bet this is just a byproduct of the parser's current complexity, one that hopefully they'll extend for completeness.
Historically, all comparison operators treated arrays as empty strings since they're not strings at all per se.
Apparently they special-cased "=" to be able to check whether a variable is an array or a string, and if the former to dive into its contents for a more thorough comparison, but they haven't yet extended that to the other operators.
