When convert two sets with the same elements to lists, are the lists always going to be the same?

That's the point. If a simple example (6 lines) can demonstrate the
concept, why spending "ten pages" to explain it. My experience is that
for certain things, it is better describe by a spec once you know it,
but it is certainly not true for people to learn it. A reasonable
strategy is to interleave spec with demonstrating examples. There is
no excuse to not to make the manual easier to read.
