Why is that significant?I get the feeling that the book order was designed not as what was most important, but a combination of importance and reading level required. That's why Newton wasn't first choice. And why Stephen Hawking was on the list. Most likely because of the ease/non-ease to read them.
What do you mean? That BHOT is on the list because it is hard, or because it is easy? I understand neither motivation...
