Resolution Note:
Closing as "by design". We could arguably change our string comparison function used to sort unconstrained system, but really the important thing is that the sort is deterministic, not that it's predictable. Projects that require a specific system ordering should not rely on the implementation of the tiebreaker function; they should use UpdateBefore/UpdateAfter to impose explicit ordering constraints.
