Order by number of relations in common

[johnj24]

Question

Is it expected behavior to have elements with the most relations in common be returned first? I've basically copied the tags and categories example from the documentation and I'm getting a seemingly random order.

Additional context

Here's a code example and what it returns:

{# Similar Recipes #}
{% set ids = entry.relatedStory.ids() | merge(entry.tags.ids()) %}
{% set limitCriteria = craft.entries.limit(8) %}
{% set similarRecipes = craft.similar.find({ element: entry, context: ids, criteria: limitCriteria }) %}

{% for similar in similarRecipes %}
  <div>{{ similar.title }} ({{ similar.count }} ids in common)</div>
{% endfor %}

{# Returns #}
Recipe Title 1 - (2 ids in common)
Recipe Title 2 - (2 ids in common)
Recipe Title 3 - (2 ids in common)
Recipe Title 4 - (2 ids in common)
Recipe Title 5 - (4 ids in common)
Recipe Title 6 - (4 ids in common)
Recipe Title 7 - (4 ids in common)
Recipe Title 8 - (2 ids in common)

Thanks!

It should be explicitly ordering them by the number found, as per:

...not sure if there was a regression or not though.
