Order

Would anyone object if I tried to reorder by region? It appears be more sensible to group Europe vs N. America &c. Espresso Addict (talk) 23:38, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Any thoughts on this notion? It seems to me to make it less "pebbles on a beach"-y, but the current order has the advantage of putting the US last, which would be tricky to achieve otherwise (South America, at very least, would end up below the US).
