I admit, I didn't look into that much; I just skimmed through some overrides of 
`List.sort`. That said, does it mean that before `List.sort`, 
`Collections.sort`, which had the same implementation that the default 
`List.sort` now has, would not be able to be properly sort 
`CopyOnWriteArrayList`?

(Sorry, if I digress.)
