This orders lines in reverse alphabetical order.
When reverse order helps
Sorting descending brings the end of the alphabet to the top, which is useful when the values you care about cluster there โ or simply to inspect a list from the other end.
Numeric strings sort oddly
Sorted as text, 9 comes after 10 because the comparison is character by character. Values that are numbers need a numeric sort rather than an alphabetical one.
Sorting groups similar values
Whatever the direction, sorting brings identical and similar entries together, which makes duplicates and inconsistent formatting visible at a glance.
