I don’t agree and this behavior shouldn’t be surprising. The alternative would be to walk the container and compare the value of each element, which could be horrible.

Quite the contrary, it's very beautiful and useful:

    >>> (1, 2) == (1, 2)
    True
    >>> (2, 1) == (1, 2)
    False

If you need identity for perf:

    >>> (1, 2) is (1, 2)
    False

If you just need the type check:

   >>> isinstance((1, 2), type((1, 2)))
   True

It's very explicit, practical, and you can set the scale of practicality vs performances where you want. Plus: no implicit weird type conversion, only one equality comparison operator, and no hidden rules.

I think it's sane.

I’m not sure if you’re for or against here. Walking the container is exactly what you have to do, and it is horrible. More importantly, if it’s not your library, you don’t get any choice on how the equality check is implemented.
