Our ChangeLogs were always in newest-first order, so why would this
suddenly be an issue?

Also readability for users should take priority over technical
matters. Newest first is the usual order (e.g. it agrees with the
default of git log), and ChangeLog having different order from
ChangeLog-20* seems rather confusing to me.
