Does dict now guarantee that it maintains order? IIRC, it was originally a mere side effect of the algorithm chosen (which was chosen for performance), but it could change in future releases or alternative implementations.

>Changed in version 3.7: Dictionary order is guaranteed to be insertion order. This behavior was an implementation detail of CPython from 3.6.

afaik the documentation states that it could change in the future

Nope, "Dict keeps insertion order" is the ruling.
