   They differ in how they handle null:
   ```
           Integer a = new Integer(10);
           Integer b = null;
           a == b; --> False
           a.equals(b); --> False
           Integer.compare(a, b); --> NPE
           a.compareTo(b); --> NPE
   ```
   .equals() mirrors the previous behaviour but you know better than me what's actually preferable.
