I would like to know why Sage does not return True if I type e < 3 or False for pi > 4. Is there a way to have that as output?

You have to enforce the check of the inequality by asking for a Boolean:

sage: bool(e<3)                                                                                    
True
sage: bool(pi>4)                                                                                   
False
