[swift-evolution] [Review] SE-0121: Remove `Optional` Comparison Operators

[Adrian Zubarev]

What is your evaluation of the proposal?

I probably never came across these Optional comparison operators in any Swift code I’ve been working with. The removal of these doesn’t hurt any of my codebase, so I’d appreciate less noise inside sdtlib.
Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?

I’d say it is. As the proposal clearly stated, reintroducing these operators later would be purely additive.
Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

I feel like it does, because right now these operators are more likely useless.
If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?

None that I can remember of.
How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?

Carefully read the proposal on GitHub.
