Correct.

Because with that change, all people mounting /dev/mmcblk0p1 or
whatever in their system would break their userspace after a simple
kernel update.

And that falls under the "we don't break userspace" mantra.

People should be able to expect their system to keep booting with kernel
updates, without neededing to meticulously validate each kernel release.

Hence that mmc order needs to stay that way.
