Pinned Items in Office 2016 not sorted alphabetically

The title says it all.  Whereas in Office 2013 pinned recent items automatically got sorted alphabetically this is no longer the case in any programme in Office 2016.  This is extremely frustrating.  Any fix?

    Updated to 1901 build 11231.20130 and my pinned items are now alphabetical.

    I could open mine with keystrokes, because I started the file names of key files with numbers. Alt-F-R-1 would open file 1xxxxxxx, now it opens the most recent. VERY annoying.

    Just curios, why do you think it would be hard to implement. 

    The MRU is being sorted before presentation, so why do you think it would be hard to implement a switch to allow user control of the sort order?

    Just an observation;

    MS is damned if they do and damned if they don't - it might be nice if it was a user option, but I think in the scheme of things that would be problematic implement.
