AFAIK the order of array keys in "for each" in rev is undefined, so an
engine change that determined the order wouldn't break any existing
code.

But I'm sorry to say that I can't think of a situation in which
chronological order would be helpful. Obviously you've got a scenario
where this works - could you enlighten me?
