Unexpected issue with sorting on setting the num prop when creating pages in code. about kirby HOT 4 OPEN

Figured out where the difference occurs - line 281 in the PageActions trait. When setting the num prop directly the logic says that it doesn't need sorting.

I have not an idea about the fixing the issue but as workaround you can use 'num' => 0 to create pages with reverse order.

@afbora yes, setting num to 0 does work but I just needed some example code to highlight the issue. Something needs fixing somewhere, but not sure if it is code or documentation. There is an inconsistency in using num in the props vs setting it after creation with changeStatus, and I think changeStatus after creation is probably the more understandable way, but num is documented as a prop and the difference in the behaviour is not obvious.

Seems that setting draft to false in conjuction with setting num is causing the issue, setting num doesn't need draft as false anyway as it sets the status to listed so should there be a warning in the docs about not using both settings together?
