Review Comment:
   One thing to double click here with everyone. I think we originally landed 
the API name as `sort` on devlist, but the implementation is using 
`partitionByRange`. In that case, I feel `clusterBy` is a more suitable name 
for this API (and also the other one below). What do we think? @zachdisc
