Well, what would be the expected behavior of sorting an untyped array?

Using whatever the built-in '<' operator does would be more natural than converting to strings just for sort().

I bet not!

  1 > {} // false
  1 < {} // false

So the result of sorting will be random.

People are fast to complain..
