You are not the only one.

I, too, don't like the idea of the buffers being automatically sorted, for
the exact same reason you stated.  Why remove the option, when it was
(presumably) working fine, and different people like it different ways?  We
all like working in different ways, let's preserve that diversity!

However, I see that it may be desirable to turn on the sorting by default.
I want to be able to turn it off, though!
