Not sure how to fix this.  We could add put the WHEN clauses in the
order they were, and add another phrase to that paragraph to explain
more explicitly that the order is not relevant (while at the same time
explaining that if you have multiple WHEN MATCHED clauses, the relative
order of those *is* relevant).
