A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I’m not suggesting that the compiler should do anything different if you’re explicitly defining a property as a different type. But my question isn’t about defining 2 properties as `Any` and expecting it to find the equals of the assigned type instead of the defined type

Maybe compareTo operator could help in your case

It doesn’t appear so, I tried it and following the reference still goes to the `equals` convention defined on `Any`
