   * <p>By default, a {@code Builder} will generate bimaps that iterate over entries in the order
   * they were inserted into the builder. For example, in the above example, {@code
   * WORD_TO_INT.entrySet()} is guaranteed to iterate over the entries in the order {@code "one"=1,
   * "two"=2, "three"=3}, and {@code keySet()} and {@code values()} respect the same order. If you

   * until a nonzero result is found; imposes "dictionary order." If the end of one iterable is
   * reached, but not the other, the shorter iterable is considered to be less than the longer one.
   * For example, a lexicographical natural ordering over integers considers {@code [] < [1] < [1,
   * 1] < [1, 2] < [2]}.
   *
   * <p>Note that {@code Collections.reverseOrder(lexicographical(comparator))} is not equivalent to

   * <pre>{@code
   * static final Multimap<Character, String> FIRST_LETTER_MULTIMAP =
   *     Stream.of("banana", "apple", "carrot", "asparagus", "cherry")
