The ordering of categories is a long and contentious topic, see: [https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-ordering-broken-in-places/17025](https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-ordering-broken-in-places/17025) for some more context.

We display categories in a list in 4 spots but not all of them will respect fixed category positions
