      Ranking-style functions are currently only allowed with single-field sortBy specs, since the implementation re-uses existing accumulator machinery under the hood which operates over single values at a time.

      One potential workaround is to prepend an $addFields stage that places the compound set of fields into their own sub-object, then applying the window function rank on that new object.
