I thought the use case for this was for nested object properties??

Or would it work with something like this

    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.dataSource.sortingDataAccessor = (item, property) => {
            switch (property) {
                case 'Priority':
                    return this.getComparablePriority(item.Priority);
                default:
                    return item[property];
            }
        };
    }

You can answer that question by yourself, by testing it.
