Note that even in this case we DON'T rely on the ordering of the

Not in the case of Append nodes, but I fail to see a problem there, so...
The order of Append child nodes is in fact significant. If this
representation loses that information then it needs to be fixed.
However, is it really so bad to be relying on node order for this?
No, if there is a genuine sequence of items then relying on node order
is just fine. My earlier (mistaken) reference was to possibly relying on
node order for a non-sequence relationship.
