This seems like a petty thing to observe, yet I'm really curious about
how this arose.  I have a guess, yet ... what's led to the state the
agenda having a nice simple room numbering yet some (not all!)
sessions not being listed in the order of the rooms?

https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/112/agenda/

I mean, yeah, it's trivial swaps with the worst of it being Thursday
session 3 having a whopping two pairs of lines out of the conventional
order.  ("Literally unplayable!" is what I think the kids are meme-ing
these days.)

I'm thinking that from a UI perspective, having a direct
correspondence between the room and line numbers
would be a good idea.  But, I know we don't do UI so maybe we should
leave it be. :)
