The review ordering problem is less about AI generation and more about graph traversal. Every diff already encodes a dependency graph (imports, function calls, type references), and optimal review order is just a topological sort weighted by cognitive load. GitHub's alphabetical ordering is zero-information when we have the full call graph. The hard part isn't producing the ordering — it's efficiently extracting and maintaining the dependency graph as code changes.
