Interesting that you should say so. That is exactly what I have found by
numerical experiments; I am glad your intuition "confirms" this.
In fact I find that leaving DoF numbering as it is (at least for
scalar valued equations) works best for distributed grids; which is
a very satisfying result for me :-)
Cheers.
Best,
