Maybe you and JavaFan just have different preferences for coding style? I don't think he was criticizing you as much as stating what works for her/him.
I also doubt you meant to come across as belittling, but "why you're so afraid..." does have that effect to some ears, even those who want to give you the benefit of the doubt.

I wasn't questioning his style, just the comments he made regarding the code I posted. He said he wondered if (1,2,3,4) could return (4,3,1,2)! He knows better than that.

I never did.
Just because a language allows itself the freedom to evaluate arguments to function or operators in any order it finds most efficient (which includes lazy evaluation, or parallelism), it doesn't such a language will turn A - B into B - A, just because it evaluated B before A.
You know better than that.
