Is the property of an answer being ordered in the order that resolutions were performed to construct it /that/ fragile?

Randomization within the final answer RRSet is fine (and maybe even preferred in a lot of cases)

Well cisco had their switches get into a boot loop, that sounds very broken...

Yes it’s a well known behaviour from these Cisco switches, not just reliant on name ordering. If SBS fails they reboot.

We thought it as just the default ntp servers abut had some reboot during this event because www.cisco.com was unavailable.
