Interesting. `/votes` seems to have “latest” as second sorting criteria for topics with the same number of votes. This would be expected in `/latest?order=votes`, but for some reason the second sorting criteria is different. I wasn’t able to find the pattern.

Also a note just in case someone touches the sorting criteria. Right now topics with zero votes and topics with no concept of votes are all mixed. It would make more sense to have all the topics with zero votes together, and then the topics without voting enabled at the end, separate.
