I was not aware of this setting. Therefore, I guess this thread should turn
into: why is this option not enabled by default? Is it not the expected
behavior in most cases? Actually I would go further and ask: why would anyone
want to disable updating the references when sorting? And, it is not a matter
of taste, in the case I presented the formula is clearly doing the job in a
wrong way (e.g. calculating the discount for one item based on a completely
different one, silently).

Anyway, I plea for a 'enabled' default. I find it difficult to see how the
'don't update references when sorting' mode is the preferable, expected
behavior for most users.

Maybe I'm missing something and there are many cases when one would not want
the references to be updated? (and risk incurring in 'hidden' errors as the one
I presented?)
