I'm not sure why your fix didn't work, but generally I work
around this by converting the OnlyResult into an array:
import std.array : array;
assert(only(3,1,2).array.sort.equal(only(1,2,3)));
I'd like to avoid allocating here.
Note that an input range isn't even remotely a container, it's a
way to iterate on a container. As you don't have all elements at
hand you can't sort them, that's why you have to use array here.
If you don't want to allocate using the GC just allocate your own
memory and store your range elements in it before sorting but
sort has to have access to all elements one way or another.
