I'm not sure what point you're trying to make now?
Are you saying D should be like C++ and require only opLess?
I don't think that's going to happen.

But I do think the examples of using opCmp should be changed to be more 
like "return lv<rv?-1: rv<lv?+1: 0;" as you said (where lv is member of 
'this' in the D version).
