Nulls sort high (in any datatype, not only timestamps). It's possible
that we'd offer an option to make them sort low in the future, but I
can't imagine that we'd change the default behavior.
regression=# (select 1 as x union select null) order by x;
x

1
(2 rows)
regression=# (select 1 as x union select null) order by x desc;
