Does it reverse the text within each line?

No — it only reverses the order of lines. The content of each individual line stays the same.

Is this different from the Text Reverser?

Yes. Text Reverser reverses characters within the text. This tool reverses the sequence of lines.

Can I reverse a sorted list back to original?

If you sorted A→Z, reversing line order gives you Z→A. However, you can also use the Sort Z→A option in the Sort Lines tool.
