I don't recall if we had explicitly called out shorten_compare and/or shorten_binary_op in any of our discussions, but I can confirm that this is one step in trying to do something sensible in this space.

I'm happy to put shorten_compare on the hit-list. I haven't had to fix anything in shorten_compare in about 15 years and I'd largely forgotten about it.
