I should have said "This doesn't support arbitrarily reorderable sibling nodes" 
instead. The nodes can still be considered ordered if they have properties that 
can be used as keys, like "filename" in a filesystem tree. But reorderable 
nodes are important in some uses cases like outliners.

That example is messed up; sorry! A correct one is:
        if you need to move a node between siblings "a" and "b" you can give it 
the order value "am".
