Sorry, but this does not concern the OCD-squad. There is no logic in the letter order, A is by no means smaller or less important than B and vice versa (unlike 1, which is only half of 2 or a 6th of 3!). We do mind wrong patters though, like:
"Your the best" or any lil' wayne lyrics and we don't like being screamed at :twak:

Of course you could call upon the CDO-squad, for them the letter order seems to matter quite a bit.

 I feel sympathy for teh OCD squad.
As a Kid I always sorted my Crayons by the colour.
Does the black belong before the white (followed by the paleyellow, yellow, orange...) or behind the dark brown? And where to put the grey one was another problem.

The trouble arises from your requirement "sorting by colour"
Neither grey, nor black or white are colours. So simply speaking, you have two groups colours and non-colours the only thing you have to decide is which group goes to the left (btw both solutions are fine, what is definitely wrong, is if you split black and white up).
More problematic is the gold-color it should mark the change from yellow to green, but usually you sort yellow-red-blue-green (its also how most crayon manufacturer sort). And that is why the cool kids sort pink-violet-blue-green-yellow-orange-red (like the rainbow).

It is also why I prefer pencils, you only have to sort them according to hardness.

I felt it was fine - although being no colour, as you stated - to put the white pen left, being the lightest hue and black being teh darkest to teh far right beside "anthrazit" a dark, near black brown. This left me with the grey, which I rarely used. Putting the non colours aside is another option. What threw me off was when there was a gap or jump in colour/ hue. I think I remember one from the clear red to the violets.


It is also why I prefer pencils, you only have to sort them according to hardness.


You can also sort them by length. While studying I hads a set from 5 h to 5 b. They were black and grey and it was horrible when I had to replace the HB with a green one...
