In addition to Jack's comment, what would the correct behavior be for "sorting on a multivalued field"? The reason this is disallowed is because there is no correct behavior in the general case.
Imagine you have two entries, aardvark and emu in your multiValued field. How should that document sort relative to another doc with camel and zebra? Any heuristic you apply will be wrong for someone else....
