Comment (by pramsey):

 Well, we found a user who depended on the old logic, and surprise, he's
 one of us!

 No, < won't be good for edges anymore, (a) because it uses box centroids
 and (b) sorting is on morton key (somewhat), so the sorted set won't line
 up in a neat line but will zigzag around the plane.
