Python dicts are now ordered
These collections are often default defined as unordered collections; it’s just that people discovered over time that some were iterable even if the language docs said otherwise.

I don't think ordering and iteration are related, are they? Whether something is sortable has no impact on whether it is enumerable.

What would it even mean for a container to be ordered if you can't iterate through it?

How I think about it is if something is unordered then the iteration strategy is a question.
