Check the top: apparently “5” < “5.5” but “5 A” > “5.5 A”. It’s probably because a substring is lexicographically before the string containing it.
But when comparing 5 A with 5.5 A the second characters ' ' and '.' get compared and apparently '.' < ' '.
agree on your point though.
another one?

The one thing that I always wanted from i3/sway is to have windows outside to the side of my screen, so that I could have
|- browser@half screen size-||- editor@half screen size -||- PDF viewer@half screen size -|
When I’m writing some math thing. Then I could just scroll to the left or to the right depending on whether I’m looking something up and writing it down, or whether I’m editing what is already written down.

I don’t know the exact reasoning for it, I would guess it’s because ‘.’ is also used to delimit file types “A book on the.pdf” < “A book on the pdf.pdf” or “Book.pdf” < “Book sequel.pdf”
I guess your confusion has in part to do with reading digits as numbers, but within a string they are part of an alphabet, every character stands on its own and has no relation to the characters around it. There is no difference between “5 1”, “5.1” and “511” you just pick an ordering of the alphabet and then sort each character accordingly.
