That's how education is too. That's why I asked; it wasn't in alphabetical order.



Interesting!

I always have wondered with these approaches, is there anything in the paper that indicates who was the “lead” author?

Also, to me, the alphabetical order approach reinforces issues with lower rank last names having various advantages. E.g, lower rank alphabetical names doing better in school [0]. Do you have any counterpoint to this that I’m missing?
