memory: correct a review point we got wrong, rather than leave it to be re-asserted

We read design-dev's 'SET order' as 'the order they were set in' and told him it
was already (created, id). He meant the SET's order — by tile number — which
genuinely differs: flag #15 then #07 and today's panel lists #15, #07 while his
tray lists #07, #15.

His rule is also cleaner than the one we proposed. The flag set sorted by its
target's position in sorted(rel) is a total order needing no tie-break at all,
because rels are unique. The memory row now says so explicitly and tells the
next session not to re-raise the point.

Round 1's booth is kept; he releases it once the flow ask is ruled.
