in thread Sort problem

The example I posted uses concatenation but removes the spaces \040 and thus the problem. ... Please explain to me why this is not appropriately sorted ...

To borrow from the standard example of why naive hyphenation can cause problems, if you remove spaces,   [qw(therapist)] sorts the same as   [qw(the rapist)]
