yq sometimes drops the first line if it's a comment

[ttung]

Describe the bug
I expect echo '# abc\n- def\n# ghi' | yq 'sort' to produce:

# abc
- def
# ghi

However, it drops the # abc and yields

- def
# ghi

Oddly enough, yq . doesn't drop the comment:

% echo '# abc\n- def\n# ghi' | yq .     
# abc
- def
# ghi

Version of yq: 4.21.1
Operating system: mac
Installed via: macports

Input Yaml

# abc
- def
# ghi

Command
echo '# abc\n- def\n# ghi' | yq 'sort'
echo '# abc\n- def\n# ghi' | yq .

Actual behavior

# abc
- def
# ghi

Expected behavior

- def
# ghi

Additional context
N/A

same error when using | line
doesnt count the first line, when it's a comment.
Is this a bug or intentional?
