      is it possible, for improved clarity, to have the aliases of entities like labels and places (or other entities as may be appropriate) be listed in chronological sequence, even if start and end dates should happen to be incompletely filled in for one or more of them?

      see as an example: https://musicbrainz.org/label/7e38574a-e80e-4311-827f-3ae15e69621d/aliases

      notice how The Gramophone Co. of India Limited (start date : unknown, end date: 1956-04) is listed last among those with any dates at all, when it should be listed second from the top.

      if the end date of an alias is earlier than the start date of any others, it should automatically come before them (just as when the start date of an alias is later than the end date of any others, it automatically comes after the latest end one). pretty straightforward, i think.

      that is all.
