Comment:

 Continuing the discussion three years later...

 I've noticed a handful of users who are still fretting that when they
 delete a comment from a post, the child comments appear as out-of-order
 parent comments.

 For instance, this one on the public WordPress.com forum:

 http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/comment-sort-order-appears-to-be-
 broken?replies=2

 The user links this Post as an example:

 Also, an older example from 2013:
