Can I add something to this?

It's not alphabetical, either, because hidden files--files and folders that start with the dot character (".") appear after all the other ones.

The dot and other special characters come before all other letters when you sort alphabetically, since they appear first in the ASCII table.

I'll call this the "unintuitive" method of sorting, although it would work as "unpredictable" way of sorting, too.
