Just wondering a little bit about the mechanics of より in this sentence. The
context as far as I can tell is that someone is saying they are better at
doing Laundry and cleaning when compared to their sister.

> 掃除洗濯も得意ですよ 姉様より

より here is simply being used to compare but I've not seen it used as a
sentence ending before and would just like to confirm my feeling is correct
and what's happening here is as the comparison is so obvious given the prior
context the last sentence is abbreviated.
