Etymology
'precisely-ordered' originates from the combination of 'precisely' and 'ordered', where 'precisely' comes from Latin 'precisus', meaning 'cut off' or 'exact', and 'ordered' from Latin 'ordinare', meaning 'to arrange'.
'precisely' evolved from the Latin 'precisus' through Old French 'precis', and 'ordered' from Latin 'ordinare' through Old French 'order'.
Initially, 'precisely' meant 'exactly' and 'ordered' meant 'arranged'. Together, they convey the idea of something being arranged in an exact manner.
