Why has the sort function been removed for search results?

I had the same problem/question and found this post... the tip here (set sort order before invoking search, and the same sort order will be honored in search results) to be useful, so thanks for that. I also hadn't realized or expected that Search and Find commands would behave differently in this regard, so, good to know. (I wish the Search results would also offer control over sort order, though.)
