> Isnt the author confusing "alphabetical sorting" with "ASCII sorting"?

But it's actually not ASCII sorting either! ASCII sorting would mean 'Z' comes before 'a' and I assume even the author doesn't want that!

No matter what, there are going to be hidden tricks!

I don't know about the author, but that's exactly what many others who know about ASCII expect, including me. Digits, then uppercase, then lowercase.
