> In DecisionTree and RandomForest binary classification with ordered categorical features, we order categories' bins based on the hard prediction, but we should use the soft prediction.
> Here are the 2 places in mllib and ml:
> * [https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/45de518742446ddfbd4816c9d0f8501139f9bc2d/mllib/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/mllib/tree/DecisionTree.scala#L887]
> * [https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/45de518742446ddfbd4816c9d0f8501139f9bc2d/mllib/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/ml/tree/impl/RandomForest.scala#L779]
> The PR which fixes this should include a unit test which isolates this issue, ideally by directly calling binsToBestSplit.
