Research direction

Start in src/sortBy and reproduce the issue with the TypeScript example from the report. Trace how the desc option is handled during sorting, then verify that the example returns [{ n: 3 }, { n: 2 }, { n: 1 }] when desc is true.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

import { sortBy } from "./src/sortBy";
console.log(sortBy([{ n: 1 }, { n: 3 }, { n: 2 }], "n", { desc: true }));
// got:      [ { n: 1 }, { n: 2 }, { n: 3 } ]
// expected: [ { n: 3 }, { n: 2 }, { n: 1 } ]

The desc option seems to be ignored completely.
