WHAT are you saying, exactly?

The CoA is a TREE structure. The accounts at the same level of the tree 
should be sorted in alpha-meric order. The sibling accounts (children of 
the same parent account) should also be sorted that way AMONG THEMSELVES 
(but not sorted that way with respect to children of different parents)

You aren't seeing the ultimate top level parent (aka "root") but "top 
level" accounts like "asset", "liability", "equity", "income", 
"expense", "Imbalance" are its children and so appear in sorted order. 
In other words, they are siblings at the highest level.
