Bit order only matters if you've got a way of addressing things smaller than bytes or if you've encoded bits from one byte into multiple bytes. That isn't the case here so bit order should not matter. The data is transmitted in units of bytes and thus the values of the bytes are preserved, no matter how each unit along the way chooses to store those byte values.
