To many peoples have got into the habit their own orders. For often used
utils this would be great problem to force peoples to learn a new order.
I almost forget all my new password in a weak, since my fingers memorize
them. The same with often used commands.
Another example FreeBSD's ifconfig vs Linux's with PPP interfaces.
If I test network drivers on one of them for long time and then move to 
other
I always say a few "thanks" for having keyword "pointopoint" (Linux).

So please do not fix order. I think peoples should have ability to leave
their own colors of bikeshed.
