org-mode: Possible to save Agenda Global TODO list order?

I'm new to org-mode and wondering if after editing the order of items in the Global TODO List, if you can save that preferred order.

I've tried C-x C-s but that doesn't seem to do anything. Thanks in advance!

It isn't possible to save this. The footnote for org-agenda-drag-line-forward in the manual ((info "(org) Agenda commands")) says

(2) Moving agenda lines does not persist after an agenda refresh and
does not modify the contributing ‘.org’ files

The command doesn't save any information to make this persist. I think reordering the original Org file and setting org-agenda-sorting-strategy is the only way to get sorting changes to persist across agenda calls.
