"As-is" sorting ignores scores

When "as-is" sorting is ON:
* Switching direction or sorting between "ascending" and "descending" should not change order of resources with equal scores.
* "Descending" should have top-scored resources on top.
* "Ascending" should have top-scored resources in the end.

The issue points to the “as-is” sorting behavior and equal-score resource ordering; no file or test is named. Start by locating that sorting entry point, then verify descending puts top-scored resources first, ascending puts them last, and direction changes preserve the order of equal scores.
