@enfors Let's say that before the game you go through the index and find monsters that look alright. You've got the time, after all. You've got a few hours. You jot down your list of things that you want to do during the session, including what monsters you want to bring to bear.
Now, during the session, you have the name of the creature you've got, but for some reason you forgot to write down a special attack, and you know it has one. Now, under time pressure, you need to find that monster while your players are looking at you in the book so that play can continue.
I want those monsters in the book in alphabetical order. The indexing for level can be slower than the sorting for finding on the fly.

@lextenebris Fair enough, that's the only valid counterpoint I've heard. But I still think my point is stronger. 🙂
