#3799 closed enhancement (fixed)

Proposal: Rip out all ops other than eq from test vectors in mutable writes

Description

As far as I can tell, the storage client only ever sends "eq" comparisons on tests. The other variants are never used.

I propose:

  1. Disabling all but "eq" on the client side.
  2. Omitting this option altogether from the HTTP protocol, and just support equality.

Also while we're at, the length field in tests is pointless, per Foolscap docs "you should use length==len(specimen) for everything except nop", and ... nop is not a thing. So that can be removed from the HTTP protocol too.
