> You don't have to craft anything for it to be in alphabetical order. You just put it in alphabetical order.

And you can still set your preferred order by naming and wording. Had they dropped "iOS" from everything, "Advertiser ID" would be at the top. I don't think they would've lost a lot of clarity with e.g. "Device Disk Space Available" instead of "iOS Device Disk Space Available". Or, if prefixes are their thing, why not call it "Zoom Application Bundle Identifier"?

Alphabetical order means nothing if you control the strings that are used for sorting.
