 * component:  REST API => Query


Comment:

 `WP_Query` itself by default does not support ordering by post status,
 hence changing the component.

 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/349590c8135b003857b47ff1a4636dc283d8b71c/src/wp-includes
 /class-wp-query.php#L1662-L1685

 I don't see why anyone would want to order by post status though, as most
 posts have the same status anyway. _Filtering_ by post status makes much
 more sense.

 I don't know why the new data views would change this.
