If the *symptoms* call for a different order, then a different order
(and/or different remedies) should be used. My understanding is that
this order is simply from *observation* that the remedies are *often*
needed in this succession. But it's certainly not written in stone,
and should be based on the presenting remedy picture.

I think the origin of this particular remedy rotation information is
found in the Sulphur chapter in _Kent's Lectures on Materia Medica

_When an instance of remedy relationships come up, it usually stems from
the authors clinical experience and then becomes Lore.
If you take a good case and prescribe on the symptom picture that the
patient exhibits...you should prescribe on the remedy that best firs the
case at hand.

It has also been said that you should not open a case with Lycopodium.
There are case histories that show this has been done and quite
successfully.
