Comment (by jameskoster):

 @DeFries yes, that would be the case with this approach. The idea being to
 create the expectation that anything WooCommerce-related lives in the
 WooCommerce meta menu - whether it's a setting, content management, or
 more abstract features like order management.

 This also allows us to tailor the menu order accordingly. For example -
 when you're managing your "site" content is likely going to feature very
 frequently in that workflow, so it makes sense for it to be the first menu
 item. But with an eCommerce store, inventory management is generally
 secondary to other tasks like checking reports, fulfilling orders,
 moderating reviews, marketing the store etc, so it makes sense for those
 sections to have more prominence than "content management".

 Pictures don't always do these things justice so I threw a very rough
 CodePen together for y'all to play around with:
