I hope we can explain in the document to clarify this, but I'm not clear 
what you are looking for.

What would constitute such a demonstration?

Do you have a example where it is significant?

Yes - it would be better to define the order and the outcome is order 
dependent with respect to replaced variables but does it make a 
difference? It is only variables restricted by scope that are changed.

Do you have a case where it makes an observable difference?

Would a bottom-up replacement be suitable?
