For me the second assignment fails with:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable >)
(setq org-agenda-sorting-strategy > ((agenda habit-down time-up priority-down
category-keep) > (todo category-keep) > (tags priority-down category-keep) >
(search category-keep)))
eval((setq org-agenda-sorting-strategy > ((agenda habit-down time-up
priority-down category-keep) > (todo category-keep) > (tags priority-down
category-keep) > (search category-keep))) nil)
eval-last-sexp-1(nil)
eval-last-sexp(nil)
call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil)
command-execute(eval-last-sexp)
If I evaluate just the first one, I'm getting the headlines as an
additional column which is better but not yet perfect.

This, however, works perfectly, thanks a lot! Is this explained anywhere
in the documentation? Because I certainly searched for it but could not
find anything.
(I'm nevertheless interested in trying out your first solution for
changing the Agenda view as well).
Best,
