Just a thought: if __gt__() returns a boolean, you can already use the
syntax from the first line.
On the other hand, if __gt__() returns a java.lang.Object, and this
object's class implements __nonzero__(), you should also be able to use
  >>> not CD2 > 10
But I'd rather use boolean as return value.

Best wishes,
