Then having a unique, well-defined order of packages in Depends is a
good idea. If packages aren't sorted their order is undefined (not all
of the dependencies are added by hands, many of them come from
substitution variables). So, the order may change from build to build.
Since it is important for APT then this situation should be avoided.
