It already was sorted by score. The problem here is the following: Shard_A and shard_B contain doc_X and doc_X. If you are querying for something, doc_X could have a score of 1.0 at shard_A and a score of 12.0 at shard_B.
You can never be sure which doc Solr sees first. In the bad case, Solr sees the doc_X firstly at shard_A and ignores it at shard_B. That means, that the doc maybe would occur at page 10 in pagination, although it *should* occur at page 1 or 2.
