How to sort split cards?

[Guest]

My wife is sorting my Magic collection whilst she's at home recovering
from surgery. The other day she asked me how the "split" cards
(like Stand/Deliver) should fit in with other cards. My first
thought was to sort them by the top half and ignore the bottom
half. Anyone recommend a different scheme?

Either in front of or behind the "gold" cards, usually.

I counted them as gold cards and sorted by name - Stand/Deliver, Fire/Ice
etc.

Okay. I should have said "usually for me" or something to that
effect. ; ) I've seen some search engines that place them in both of
the colors they are, as well.

This will require some pretty heavy quantum mechanic fiddeling when
sorting physical cards though
