Sorting a complex array returns empty

[jarnalyrkar]

Bug description

I saw this in the documentation:

So I tried to make my own complex array and sort it, but it returns empty. I expected it to return a sorted array by the given value.

How to reproduce

I'm creating an array in antlers by getting specific fields from platforms, which is a field in the blueprint of taxonomy Countries:

{{ active_platforms = [] }}
{{ taxonomy:countries }}
 {{ platforms }}
	{{ if total_results > 0 and !(active_platforms|where("key", slug)) }}
	 {{ active_platforms += ["value" => title, "key" => slug] }}
	{{ /if }}
 {{ /platforms }}
{{ /taxonomy:countries }}
{{ active_platforms | sort="value" }}
 {{ value }}
{{ /active_platforms }}

This is the dump of active_platforms:

array:3 [▼ // vendor/statamic/cms/src/Modifiers/CoreModifiers.php:622
 0 => array:2 [▼
 "value" => "Newgrounds"
 "key" => "newgrounds"
 ]
 1 => array:2 [▼
 "value" => "Albinoblacksheep"
 "key" => "albinoblacksheep"
 ]
 2 => array:2 [▼
 "value" => "Ebaumsworld"
 "key" => "ebaumsworld"
 ]
]

Antlers Toolbox gives this error: Closing tags must match exactly when using shorthand modifiers in tag pairs. Adding the modifier to the ending tag makes the error go away, but looks weird and doesn't fix the problem.

As a way of sidestepping the issue; assigning the variable to a sorted version on the line just before the loop works:
{{ active_platforms = active_platforms | sort("value") }}

Note to self: improvement here should be to throw a parser error on this invalid modifier syntax

{{ active_platforms | sort="value" }}
 {{ value }}
{{ /active_platforms }}

should be

{{ active_platforms | sort("value") }}
 {{ value }}
{{ /active_platforms }}

or

{{ active_platforms sort="value" }}
 {{ value }}
{{ /active_platforms }}

but not both
