    initial v1  
    1 I disagree -- enabling `QuerySet.order_by()` to sometimes do operations in memory could be quite confusing. I think this has probably been proposed before in some form before, but can't immediately find a discussion. As [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/models/querysets/ the documentation] notes, "Each `order_by()` call will clear any previous ordering" (it returns a new `QuerySet`). Anyway, this isn't my area of expertise so I'll leave it open for a second opinion.

Also, it's impossible to replicate the databases implementation of ordering in Python.
