    Yeah, but the PR I linked (and maybe other parts of the code) depend on 
sorted indices. Have we checked if the ordering of indices is assumed elsewhere 
in the code?
    
    Also, Python's `sorted` uses timsort internally which has O(n) complexity 
for an already sorted input so the overhead is not terrible.
