Moving Day?

(All together now...) This is my response to Scojo's setting prompt this week, which is celebrating the anniversary of Flinty's wonderful Dutch Flatmates series.
Mean Mini: Fill every cell with one of a selection of six different digits chosen from 1-9, such that a digit does not repeat in a row, column or box.
Grey lines are entropic AND modular; i.e every 3-cell sequence on a line must contain a digit from {1,2,3}, {4,5,6}, {7,8,9}, {1,4,7}, {2,5,8} and {3,6,9}.
Equality: The sum of the digits on each of the indicated diagonals is the same.
Inequality: An inequality sign points to a lower digit.
Dutch Flatmates: Every 5 in the grid must have a 1 directly above it, or a 9 directly below it. It may have both, but it isn't necessary.

Everything you've come to expect from ThePedallingPianist and much more.

Brilliant puzzle for exploiting the logic of the rules in a wonderful way.
