@enfors I have a very easy and obvious counter-argument. The monster listing should be in alphabetical order. That's how we remember what the name of something is and then find it easily, which is going to be the primary mechanism by which you engage with the content. However, it also needs an index by level so that you can look at the level of things in a given range, find out the names, and then go look them up. Sorting by level is going to be way less useful the majority of the time.

@lextenebris So let's say you look at the level index and find that there are 10 monsters of suitable level. You must now flip to the first monster and check it out, then flip back to the index. Then repeat that 9 more times, without forgetting what you had already looked up. That would be much easier if they were all on the pages next to each other. When you look for a monster by name, you only do it *once*. When you do it by level, you do it many times - *that* should be the easiest.
