If the procedure steps must be executed in any particular order, they shouldn't be equal. The whole point in sorting a procedure is of course to get a total ordering from a partial ordering describing the interdependenices between the steps, and if the partial order is incorrect then of course the total ordering will be incorrect as well.

The shutdown procedure of your nuclear powerplant might be executed in an out-of-orderly fashion. All sorts of interesting things might end up happening or not happening. :-)
