--- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
The help article [1] is completely correct.

It tells you, that type 1 of search (the default value of the optional third
argument of MATCH) tells the function, that the lookup array *is* sorted
ascending. And when it is *not* sorted accordingly, when the type is 1 (or
missing), it is user's error, and the return value can be anything - user must
not expect a meaningful result in this case. We need to add a note about that
fact, similar to what we added for VLOOKUP [2].

It is completely unclear what "=MATCH(3: D:D)" in your description might stand
for.
