Thread:User talk:CodeCat/sort key in Greek headword lines/reply (6)

I didn't start adding various sorts to Greek entries. But they do ensure that accented letters sort ahead of the rest of the alphabet, so - see Category:Greek verb forms - "ήμασταν" sorts ahead of "αβάσκανα".

You say above: "If the templates automatically do the sorting, then it's better not to rely on remembering to add DEFAULTSORT all the time." Templates only automatically do the sorting if they have that parameter. Which was why I asked you about the scope of DEFAULT sort versus sort parameters in a headword template (presumably limited to the template).
