OK. I had some fun. I'll go away now.
[But is this really more bogus than a vacuous result appealing to "if a
collection is not unsorted/ordered it is sorted/ordered"?
By that reasoning something non-comparable is {vacuously} ordered:
(vector-sort (lambda whatever #t) '#('oranges #\c "apples" 3))
=> #(3 "apples" #\c 'oranges)
I think I did a least define a consistent total order.
Something must be comparable to be ordered. Anything outside of this is just
proping up a weak proof system].
