+1 to leave it as it is. The "Variable" list starts with a number
and the numbers are in the same order as the CBR bit rates  
(and bit rates in the other format option dialogues) - lowest
first. 

I certainly wouldn't want to reverse the CBR bit rate order 
which you would then have to do for the other formats for 
consistency.
