I modified the doc string to say this instead:
Sort lines in region alphabetically; REVERSE non-nil means descending order.
Interactively, REVERSE is the prefix argument, and BEG and END are the region.
Called from a program, there are three arguments:
REVERSE (non-nil means reverse order), BEG and END (region to sort).
The variable ‘sort-fold-case’ determines whether alphabetic case affects
the sort order.
Does this modified doc string resolve the issue you had?
