      public Comparator<?> get(Class<?> clazz)
      This method returns the most relevant comparator for the given class. The most relevant comparator is the comparator which is registered for the class that is closest in the inheritance chain of the given clazz. The order of checks is the following: 1. If there is a registered comparator for clazz then this one is used 2. We check if there is a registered comparator for all the superclasses of clazz 3. We check if there is a registered comparator for all the interfaces if clazz
      Parameters:
      clazz - the class for which to find a comparator
      Returns:
      the most relevant comparator, or null if no comparator could be found
