Why there is no "sort by release date only" filter at the "tag" search page?

Serioulsy, there are limitless super helpful (no) filters like "the most hyped", "the most rated", "top sellers" (wtf do I even need to know this?), "WITH DISCOUNT" (omg), "the most hyped to be".
And for some truly incomprehensible reason default "all items" filter sorts list by... sells rank.

For example, I want some lovecraftian piece of game, and I really know my stuff. I click on tag and what do I see? SOMA, Cultist Simulator, and Amnesia with reacent DD2. Really? FFS, I don't need to see everywhere well known and hyped games. They're good, they're cool, ok, but steam is not a dirty little gamejournalist (blah) portal, it's a shop, give me your recent stuff. There are lot of non-hyped games in category "2 players at week and 100 reviews for year", I want to see their fresh games too.

When I search last time mb 3 or 4 month ago there were sort by release date only filter (or smth like that). MB I'm just blind af and couldn't find it now, but that's impossible ofc. Pls add this filter back, it's really helpful at times, and there is no reason for not to have it.

Sincerly yours, loyal but angry customer.
