Orderby date on sub sites

Ok, I made it – with a real dirty hack…
(So if anybody knows a better way 😉 )

I just copied the whole part with ordering (without search) from wc-template-functions.php to
the functions.php of the child theme and changed the array date to date-desc.
I just wonder why now it’s ok in the shop site too…

/**
	 * Output the product sorting options.
	 */
	function woocommerce_catalog_ordering() {
		if ( ! wc_get_loop_prop( 'is_paginated' ) || ! woocommerce_products_will_display() ) {
			return;
		}
		$show_default_orderby    = 'menu_order' === apply_filters( 'woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby', get_option( 'woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby', 'menu_order' ) );
		$catalog_orderby_options = apply_filters(
			'woocommerce_catalog_orderby', 
			array(
				'popularity' => __( 'Sort by popularity', 'woocommerce' ),
				'rating'     => __( 'Sort by average rating', 'woocommerce' ),
				'date-desc'       => __( 'Sort by latest', 'woocommerce' ),
				'price'      => __( 'Sort by price: low to high', 'woocommerce' ),
				'price-desc' => __( 'Sort by price: high to low', 'woocommerce' ),
			) 
		);
		// phpcs:disable WordPress.Security.NonceVerification.Recommended
		$orderby = isset( $_GET['orderby'] ) ? wc_clean( wp_unslash( $_GET['orderby'] ) ) : $default_orderby;
		// phpcs:enable WordPress.Security.NonceVerification.Recommended

		if ( wc_get_loop_prop( 'is_search' ) ) {
			$catalog_orderby_options = array_merge( array( 'relevance' => __( 'Relevance', 'woocommerce' ) ), $catalog_orderby_options );

			unset( $catalog_orderby_options['menu_order'] );
		}

		if ( ! $show_default_orderby ) {
			unset( $catalog_orderby_options['menu_order'] );
		}

		if ( ! wc_review_ratings_enabled() ) {
			unset( $catalog_orderby_options['rating'] );
		}

		if ( ! array_key_exists( $orderby, $catalog_orderby_options ) ) {
			$orderby = current( array_keys( $catalog_orderby_options ) );
		}

		wc_get_template(
			'loop/orderby.php',
			array(
				'catalog_orderby_options' => $catalog_orderby_options,
				'orderby'                 => $orderby,
				'show_default_orderby'    => $show_default_orderby,
			)
		);
	}
