I've always assumed it was the default sort order in the man page:
mocntl

I think a report of 'ssid' will report one line per ssid.  So a sort of
'm' might show either the ssid in the media order where it first
appears, or it might show the ssid in the media order where the head of
the ssid is located.  Not sure.

A report of 'ssid,mediafile' will now show one line per fragment.  So I
think you'll get a different number of lines, but it's easier to see how
it's in media order.
