ObjectId does not conform to SortableType - sorted(by:ascending:) not working as expected

How frequently does the bug occur?

Always

Description

I'm reading objects from my realm, I want to sort the results using the sorted(by:ascending:) method by the ObjectId. However, I get the warning:

Instance method 'sorted(by:ascending:)' requires that 'ObjectId.PersistedType' (aka 'ObjectId') conform to 'SortableType'

The documentation mentions, that sorting by ObjectId will usually result in sorting by creation date, so I assume it should be possible.

Example code in my project:

try await realm?
            .objects(UserToken.self)
            .sorted(by: \._id, ascending: true)
            .subscribe(name: #function)

Easy fix.

Just change

.sorted(by: \._id, ascending: true)

to

.sorted(by: \._id.stringValue, ascending: true)
