"`cmp` will first try to compare operands as strings (via coercion to `Stringy`)" NOPE about doc HOT 1 OPEN

To trace the issue back:

a90a5e5
The original description was already wrong. Probably there was a misunderstanding about cmp being the stringy version of <=> (that's actually leg which is somehow not even mentioned at Order and has a completely different signature).

#1036 already pointed this out but the fix applied went the wrong way around it.

However, I tend to question whether cmp and <=> even have to be there. Sure, the output type of these operations are Orders but usually one would list the operations to be performed on the particular data type. I think it would be enough to informally illustrate that comparison operations (including leg actually) produce Order values, and put the type graph there. If there are specific operations for Orders then those could be added but I don't think there are (m)any.
