Only if one of them is a string right? If you have only numbers then it works fine right? Right? (Please say that I'm right 😭)

No. It always compares by converting to string. I actually think this is more consistent then having different behaviour if you have a string somewhere in your list.

Basically the default comparator is a.sort((a, b) => `${a}` < `${b}` ? -1 : 1).
