Comment:

 Currently, passing a list of arguments to 'include' simply retrieves that
 set of categories, regardless of their hierarchy.

 So here are the problems with your proposal:

 1) What if I don't want to order by those IDs, just simply include them?

 2) The hierarchy would be broken

 Even if those problems were resolved, the implementation would still boil
 down to this:

 {{{
 <?php
   foreach ( array(84, 23, 174, 175) as $id )
     wp_list_categories("show_count=&title_li=&include=$id");
 ?>
 }}}
