Thank you for this great explanation (and the invitation to go down a few rabbit holes). I knew about the order of adjectives and even had a tiny itch to know the reason for it (beyond custom) but never followed up on it. Shameful, I know. I like the way your mind works. :D
It might be wrong, honestly, but it's fun to speculate and it's the best explanation I can muster or have seen! It's not shameful — sometimes the reason we don't know what we don't know is that still small voice that's curious gets drowned out by noise. Hard to be playful with that curiousity in today's world.
