I’m not sure that it’s correct. I’ve added a reference to SO ( https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61946190/lua-eq-on-tables-with-different-metatables ) and it seems condition should be following
mta and mta.__eq and mta == mtb. Otherwise tables have different __eq metamathods and you should compare their content.
 
I’m not sure that my proposal is completely correct and suggest to ask Igor about it.
