Hi Harlan,
According to what I have seen, which may not match your experience ...
If you are loading in an environment with no modules previously loaded, and
each module loads only itself (and not a bunch of others), then yes, the list
order is the same as the load order.
If you have a module already loaded, and then you load it again, its order
doesn't change.
If one module loads a bunch of others, module list shows those first and then
the wrapper module last.
What happens if you do "module purge" and/or "module clear" before your module
load command?
