Even the usual example of a reversed inlet-order, [timer], is reversed *because* outlets of important other objects fire right to left, namely [t b b] which gives the nice

[t b b]

[timer]

idiom without crossing wires.

There is a use for both

[t b b]
 |   |
[realtime]

and

[t b b]
  \ /
   X
  / \
[realtime]

and I don't think that the straight line pattern is any cleaner than the crossed line pattern. I use both all of the time. Many object classes have both a use with straight lines and a use with crossed lines. Crossed lines themselves are not bad. It's not like it's any hard to follow the flow along a small cross.
