Order of sort/reverse does matter in the engine; however, we don't have the option to reverse before sorting in the web UI. Reverse pre/post sort is wired up in IrisGrid, but looks like pre-sort is never used
Just a snippet showing order does matter
from deephaven import empty_table
t = empty_table(100).update(["X=i", "Y=i%2==0 ? 0 : 1"])
no_reverse = t.sort("Y")
pre = t.reverse().sort("Y")
post = t.sort("Y").reverse()
