Working on #7287 I notice that writable.cork() and writable.uncork() are not together, I guess it's because the alphabetical order, but I think the experience reading the stream documentation is going to be better if they live together.

You're right, but I think the overall doc experience is better if everything is predictably in alphabetical order.

Yes, alphabetical order I think is the right choose, but on my opinion we can improve the experience if we make an exception on this case.

There are many other cases in the documentation where an exception would be warranted. The problem is that if you keep making exceptions, then the documentation loses all consistency.

I'm -1 on changing the order. Improving the documentation so that the links between the two are clearer is definitely a good idea.

How about adding See also: links in the places where it would otherwise make sense to reorder, e.g. one from cork() to uncork() and vice versa?

Makes sense to me.

On a side note - it seems these methods are moot for socket connections to non local servers? Using cork / uncork to buffer writes to a local connection practically doubles the op/s. But to a remote server it halves it...? 😭

Is there any different logic for non-local connections? See redis/ioredis#343 that PR I did, I switched to not using cork as it's more performant (~70k ops/s more), but even with a cork/uncork implementation the result on remote servers is the same - worse.

If there is some different logic then is it worth documenting this?
