  I just read that section last night again.
  Is there any point in talking about an ordering if there is no
canonical order? 

  In general, I feel that the architecture document has gone beyond
being a functional specification and gone into being a design
specificiation. I've been told by some that this is a trend in IETF
standards, and isn't something I should worry about.
  I am pleased in general, with the document, and particularly the
ICMP sections.
