Order of grading systems in Conversions table ? Purely cosmetic #3609

What logic was followed to choose in which order or position to place each grade system ? The first 2 graphs seem visually scattered while the 3rd seems consistent.

What you expected: Simple reordering of the columns: Bring very similar grade systems next to each other, so slight differences are easier to compare. Sort some system by range covered, instead of seesawing (Bouldering)

e.g. Sport&Trad -Ewbanks and South african next to each other -Swedish next to Finnish and Norvegian

Bouldering: -Font and Font Traverse next to each other -B- and P-Scale together, with Annot B -S and Joshua Tree together

the 3rd graph "other grades system" is already very consistent with that.

Dev note:

The systems parameter comes from atomConfigGradeSystem in GradeAtom.pm. It is ordered based on Priority which comes from a config file. I am not sure about the implications of breaking on screen order from priority or making the underlying changes to the data. Priority has deeper implications then just on screen order in this article.

In summary I am not sure which way to go just yet.

I understand, definitely leave it as it is since it is purely cosmetic. If one day we look at GradeAtom or the Priority logic for another more pressing matter and understand the implications, we can review.
