It's true, it wouldn't matter for that use, but if it
were put in in the reverse order, a tech looking at
one end might think it was a crossover cable, not
checking the other end.
And if it was just put together in any old order, a
tech who noticed the scramble would have to examine
the other end minutely to see that it would work for a
regular (non-crossover and correctly constructed)
ethernet cable.
There's something to be said for consistency...though
what, I don't know.
