RDP Last Date Used column not sorting

When showing all library objects that appear in a filter, I selected Show in Table. I know a new menu option was added to Default or All which is great.
The problem I'm having is any of the columns can be sorted by clicking on the column header - EXCEPT - the last date used.
What is happening instead is the FIRST column, object name is being sorted, first from A-Z and then Z-A.


Use Case:

Now that last date used is available is it a helpful tool to identify old and possibly dead objects on a system.
