It seems to only work for a fixed size. Wouldn’t that be called a sorting network?

It is a sorting network corresponding to bubble sort on 5-element input.

It is actually pretty good - the code uses 10 comparisons, while the optimal sorting network for 5 elements uses 9: https://bertdobbelaere.github.io/sorting_networks.html#N5L9D...
