No, it is not. That's all nonsense that demonstrates a shallow thinking.
Comparison method one uses in lexicographic sort is very much
variable part of algorithm rather than something fixed.
Many good methods start sorting by using just few (sometimes one)
leading characters and only in later passes that typically operate on
much much shorter sections, they use full string comparison.
One example where doing it smart is particularly beneficial is a sort
at core of Burrows-Wheeler Transform.
