The problem problem is that they basically mean different things in
different parts of the driver. So you anyway have to mentally expand
the list out to figure out what's really going on.

Nah. Getting the compiler to do the work for us seems like
a decent idea.

And unsorted list is quite hard to verify visually for correctness. We
might have a function pointer assigned for each platform, but if you
actually want to verify that it's the correct one in each case then
going through the list is IMO much easier when it's in a decent order.
