Will anything bad happen if entries in the MediaWiki "logging" table are not

Due to a bug, our logging table has incomplete data. I'd like to insert the
missing data using a script.
However, the log_id column is auto-increment. This means that when the table is
ordered by log_id,
the data will not be in chronological order by log_timestamp.
Is that bad in any way?
Or are all applications (like Special:Log) expected to "order by log_timestamp"
rather than log_id?
Thanks,
Dan
It's perfectly fine. They should be sorting by log_timestamp
