sort-by {length} on list of strings doesn't result in error #14462
Description
Describe the bug
The following should result in a type error, or at least a runtime error:
["hello" "bye"] | sort-by {length}
Because length cannot be applied on strings.
Worse, it just silently returns the original list, making the user believe the code is okay when they should have written:
["hello" "bye"] | sort-by {str length}
How to reproduce
Just run the code excerpt above
Expected behavior
I expected a runtime error telling me that length cannot be applied to strings.
