If you check the "update title sort" box and do a search/replace in the same bulk edit, then the order of evaluation matters. When you press OK, calibre first honors the check box, updating the title sort in the database. It then does the search replace, meaning that the S/R will see the updated value and potentially overwrite it.

It is easy to see ways that this process could produce unexpected results.
