Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-4557:
--------------------------------------

{quote}I don't think it is necessary to simplify{quote}

It depends on the implementation. If your algorithm stores the sort keys 
separately from the rows being sorted, it definitely makes a difference. And if 
the cost model were to count the number of fields in the sort key, it would 
make a difference to the cost model.

> Sort costing should account the number of sort keys: the more keys to 
> compare, the more the cost
