reaper.MIDI_Sort() deletes notes it shouldn't

As you can see in the below animation, the right note is deleted by MIDI_Sort.

Code:

reaper.MIDI_InsertNote(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()), false, false, 3840.0, 7680.0, 0, 55, 96, true)
reaper.MIDI_InsertNote(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()), false, false, 0.0, 3840.0, 0, 55, 96, true)
reaper.MIDI_Sort(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()))

This is expected due to the ambiguity of MIDI note on vs off. Insert earlier notes first, or don’t disable sorting when adding notes that overlap...

It also happens when noSort is false

Code:

reaper.MIDI_InsertNote(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()), false, false, 3840.0, 7680.0, 0, 55, 96, false)
reaper.MIDI_InsertNote(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()), false, false, 0.0, 3840.0, 0, 55, 96, false)

or when sorting twice

Code:

reaper.MIDI_InsertNote(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()), false, false, 3840.0, 7680.0, 0, 55, 96, true)
reaper.MIDI_Sort(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()))
reaper.MIDI_InsertNote(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()), false, false, 0.0, 3840.0, 0, 55, 96, true)
reaper.MIDI_Sort(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetTake(reaper.MIDIEditor_GetActive()))

For context it affects my ChordGun tool, for example when replacing a chord in a progression with one that shares notes with the following chord. I can't seem to find a way around it
