Crafting Station "Style" Order?

DiteHart

Okay, I definitely don't have OCD (although I do have a couple of tendencies), but....this is killing my OCD. Or maybe just that "this doesn't make sense" anger like trying to figure out a puzzle or something. And this is definitely part question, part rant, but:

But, does anyone know if there's some order to the in-station Style list that makes any sense?
It's always the same, so there's technically some order, even if it's just an order ZOS made up because the obvious styles make too much sense.

They aren't in alphabetical order by style name.
They aren't in alphabetical order by material.
They aren't in order of release (as Morag Tong got shoved between Skinchanger and Ra Gada).

I've noticed some grouping, but it feels...inconsistent.
The alliance style materials are grouped together.
The 9 basic races are grouped together in the front (but for some reason about 20 materials seperate the Imperial motif from them).
The exotic/rare style are *almost* together, as for some reason Order of the Hour cuts into the group.
Event materials are NOT together.
Same-DLC motifs are NOT together.
Shared-release motifs are NOT together.

Within the a couple of groups, there seems to be a race/alliance order. For example:
The alliance styles are grouped as Daggerfall Covenant, Ebonheart Pact, then Aldmeri Dominion
The basic racial styles are Breton, Redguard, Orc, Dark Elf, Nord, Argonian, High Elf, Wood Elf, and Khajiit. (So, the DC races, then EP, then AD. And the two "normal" races followed by the "beast" races, So, these all probably follow the order in the character creation).

Is the order something obscure, like the first "created" style? (As in, there was an in-game set crafted in the Dark Brotherhood style before one in the Malacath style or something?)

It's just super annoying because I'm seeing touches of order and sense, but then overall randomness.

I'm just guessing here, but I thought it was ordered by style number.

I forgot to mention that. I checked that as well, but it's not. Skipping over the basic races (which still aren't in order, because Crafting Motifs 1-3 are the elves, while the first three listed are Breton, Redguard, and Orc). The first 10 don't even really have an order.

I've started a Sheet with some info (just has the 10 after the basic races for now): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1n2OpMzHp5pvSTB83VMeKxRLzjiPcWyY6OkZYc_nC_NM/edit?usp=sharing

I would LOVE It if it was simply done in alphabetical, or even release date so I knew newer styles were in the far right.

The sheet linked above doesn't exist any more. There are so many styles now that finding them on the table is ridiculously difficult. Does anyone know of a list that gives the order on the crafting table?

The style materials are in order of release. Base game being first, last being the latest dlc

EDIT: if you have "have knowledge" or "have materials" checked, you might be missing a few showing up.

if your on PC there is an addon that lets you just click on the word style and gives you an alphabetically organized dropdown of all the styles you know for that piece along with a quantity of resources you have for the style trait material

im at work right now and dont remember the name of the addon off the top of my head though (i could look it up later tonight though)

edit: saw in your signature that you are on console, so sadly this option wont be able to help much, but posting it in case others might want the info lol
