As you can see, this is supposed to be sorted according to Dates Start in Descending order, but is not. Sorting on Created Date works just fine.

What are the sort settings for the Sick db?  
Will try to reproduce.

It’s the same: If you try to sort on “Dates Start” from the “All Databases” tab then it says “🤷‍♀️ Cannot display sorts from different databases together” and instead puts a “Dates Start” sort in each of Vacation and Sick. I’ve changed the sort direction on both to be descending. So maybe this is a limitation of Date Range field types.

I guess I can make a formula field called “Start Date” and sort on that instead, but it’d be nice if this worked.
