The disorder analogy can be misleading in some cases: http://entropysite.oxy.edu/cracked_crutch.html

Yes, that’s while I don’t frame as disorder but rather explain order in terms of the micro state-macro state relation. While a built lego set and a crystal are well ordered and have low entropy, order and entropy aren’t the same thing.
