See library sortie.el.

* Description: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Sortie

* Code: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/download/sortie.el

You can define sort orders and choose among them on the fly.

Different sort orders are appropriate for different operations, different sets of completion candidates, and different use cases/contexts and users.

A user option to choose a preferred sort order is at best appropriate for an overall _default_ sort order.

It could also be a place to hold a set of sort orders, including orders defined by a user.  But on its own, it can't deal with the need to be able to change sort orders anytime.
