Yes, so mean indeed. Do you know why they went out of order, by chance? The only thing I can think of would be that A colonized earlier than B but B chartered first?
Or maybe it was just for fun to confuse people? At Microsoft there's an inside joke that new employees are sent to building 7 to get their badges... Building 7 was never built, and badges were actually in bld 8. But people usually figured it out because 8 is right by where 7 theoretically would be. Although now it's not as fun because a new orientation building was constructed so badges are no longer at bld 8. But I'm sure people will find another way to bring up the illustrious bld 7.
