Solution would be to check for the sort key and and add a field for it.

Should we check to see if that field is
dateand add an appropriate date field? Otherwise we'll add something likedate: datewhich will cause an error later on when we sort which this is supposed to help get rid of.I can see doing that and I can see erroring out at the creation phase saying it's missing the sort key.
