Why is the alphabet in 'alphabetical' order? There is no reason it should be in this order...this still makes it unorganized.

You could ask the same question about pretty much anything in life: Why is the colour blue, "blue"? Why are numbers ordered the way they are? Why is up "up" and not "down"? Why did you post this non program related question?

It is easier to learn if it has only one order. Why change it, what will be the advantage.

I just realized the base hierarchy for all written sounds has no logical reason for existing and no base for its continued use. every thing i was taught in kinder garden has been voided by this realization.

yeah... but they could use an order that has similar ones next to each other so it was easier to tell the difference or put all the vowels at the end or beginning or organize them all by shape... so in the end I don't see a reason for that either

i have no idea why the colors are named that way but the way numbers are ordered is simple enough that i can tell you have no idea what i am talking about.
