this is clearly a problem of your side, and i would even consider it as a bug of the patch. use [trigger]s, whereever you can. this is MUCH cleaner, than max' graphic representation, that can be messed up so easily.
After some thought on the subject, I realize that of course if the Pd language states that multiple lines coming from an outlet have an undefined order, then the inability to determine their ordering cannot be considered a deficit. So I'll rephrase my previous assertion that this is a fundamental problem with Pd:
This is a fundamental _issue_ with Pd, which some might consider problematic, or at the very least, annoying. But by definition, not technically erroneous.
I think that perhaps better summarizes my opinion here..
Since [t] is the official work-around for this issue it's certainly no show-stopper, but I think it would be nice, imho, if there were a cleaner way of representing this. But it's certainly not as important as other things that need work. However, as seen in this thread, it is sometimes an very confusing issue for beginners in Pd, especially if they have any kind of previous experience with Max.
