That's a level of analysis that it doesn't do, and TBH I'm not even
entirely sure it's correct to assume that the output is sorted like
that. At minimum you'd need an additional assumption that the
outer side's join key is unique, which is a factor that we don't
currently track when reasoning about ordering.
