Sections 3.4.26 (resp. 3.4.27): this says that yearMonthDuration (resp.
dayTimeDuration) is totally ordered, but the 'ordered' fundamental
facet is said to be 'partial'.  Michael Sperberg-McQueen told us why
this was so, but this looks so much like an error (or worse: obfuscation
;-) that we think the spec should explain it away.
