Does this parallel structure need coordinated prepositions to avoid being a faulty parallelism?

> ...on Finnis's view all distinct instances of basic goods are incommensurable — none is of more, less, or equal value with any other. — [Source](http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/natural-law-ethics/) I expect to see *more or less than any other*, but then *equal* shows up, and is followed by *with*. But since *with any other* cannot replace *than any other*, do you think this sentence illegitimately omits something?
