But the basic semantics hasn't really changed: two (multi)sets of

Why regardless of order? Dicts have an ordering nowadays. Why
shouldn't that ordering be reflected in the algorithm for
comparing their values()?
Because it's already the case that order doesn't matter when comparing
dicts and their keys (and presumably items, but I didn't check):
>>> {1:2,2:3} == {2:3,1:2}
True
>>> list({1:2,2:3}.keys())
[1, 2]
>>> list({2:3,1:2}.keys())
[2, 1]
>>> {2:3,1:2}.keys() == {1:2,2:3}.keys()
True
>>>
