Review comment:
       The order of columns returned by `group_by()` and then `summarise()` are 
the order in which they're supplied to `group_by()`, whereas the order of 
columns returned from `distinct()` are the order in which they occur in the 
data, even if there's a `group_by()` call previously.
   ```
   > tbl %>%
   +       group_by(some_grouping, int) %>%
   +       summarise() %>%
   +       collect()
   `summarise()` has grouped output by 'some_grouping'. You can override using 
the `.groups` argument.
