Description

Hello Dev.
Was it your intention that sorting by size wouldn't be effective on folders? Because that is what I'm experiencing here. Can't sort folders by size, only files follow the order.

Research direction

Start by reproducing size sorting in the Android file manager with both files and folders, then trace the sorting entry point for directory listings. Confirm whether folder sizes are available to the sorter; done means folders are ordered by size consistently with files, with a regression check for the reported behavior.
