I think it is just a missing feature. The unthreaded view is fairly new,
and the underlying code in the notmuch-show command never supported an
ordering argument before. I think the actual code to enable the other
ordering for unsorted output would be fairly easy to add. The challenge
is probably what to do with that argument for the threaded
output. Probably it can just be ignored.  If someone wants to tackle
this they can probably get an idea of how to get started by looking at
the implementation of the "sort" argument notmuch-search
