R语言Plotly中legendrank不生效：是Bug还是用户使用错误？

我在使用R语言Plotly 4.10.1版本时，遇到了图例显示顺序不符合预期的问题。我已在GitHub提交正式issue，但也认可可能是我存在理解偏差或「用户使用错误」。如果有人能在此证明是用户错误，我会删除该Bug报告。

以下是可复现代码：

library(tidyverse)
library(plotly)
(tot_df <- structure(list(
  rank = structure(c(
    1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 2L,
    2L, 3L, 3L, 3L, 3L, 4L, 4L, 4L, 4L
  ), levels = c(
    "1", "2", "3",
    "4"
  ), class = "factor"), value = c(
    1, 0.316227766016838, 2, 0.447213595499958,
    3, 0.547722557505166, 4, 0.632455532033676, 5, 0.707106781186548,
    3, 0.547722557505166, 2, 0.447213595499958, 1, 0.316227766016838
  ), name = c(
    "stat1", "stat_2", "stat1", "stat_2", "stat1", "stat_2",
    "stat1", "stat_2", "stat1", "stat_2", "stat1", "stat_2", "stat1",
    "stat_2", "stat1", "stat_2"
  ), `Display name` = structure(c(
    1L,
    1L, 2L, 2L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L
  ), levels = c(
    "Reference",
    "Current"
  ), class = "factor"), series_name_text = structure(c(
    1L,
    2L, 3L, 4L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L
  ), levels = c(
    "Reference stat1",
    "Reference stat_2", "Current stat1", "Current stat_2"
  ), class = "factor"),
  my_legend_rank = c(
    1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 1L, 2L,
    3L, 4L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L
  )
), row.names = c(NA, -16L), class = c(
  "tbl_df",
  "tbl", "data.frame"
))
)


px <- plot_ly(
  data = tot_df,
  width = 800,
  height = 600,
  x = ~rank,
  y = ~value,
  name = ~series_name_text,
  legendrank = ~my_legend_rank,
  color = ~`Display name`,
  colors = c("green", "blue"),
  textposition = "none",
  type = "bar",
  opacity = .5,
  yaxis = "y"
) |> layout(legend = list(
  orientation = "h",
  xanchor = "center",
  yanchor = "bottom",
  y = -0.3,
  x = 0.5
))

# table(tot_df$series_name_text,tot_df$my_legend_rank
#                  1 2 3 4
# Reference stat1  4 0 0 0
# Reference stat_2 0 4 0 0
# Current stat1    0 0 4 0
# Current stat_2   0 0 0 4

从视觉上可以看到，legendrank设置并未生效：
