Brain-teaser: processing order

In 4.8.4+ we have two ways to alter the order in which tags are processed: the nominal/positional one

<txp:container evaluate="2, tag3">
    <txp:tag1 /> <!-- will be processed last -->
    <txp:tag2 /> <!-- will be processed first -->
    <txp:tag3 /> <!-- will be processed next -->
</txp:container>

and the ordinal one:

<txp:container>
    <txp:tag1 /> <!-- will be processed last -->
    <txp:tag2[2] /> <!-- will be processed next -->
    <txp:tag3[1] /> <!-- will be processed first -->
</txp:container>

Both are fine, but I can’t see how to make them cohabitate: what should the order be here

<txp:container evaluate="2, tag3">
    <txp:tag1 />
    <txp:tag2[2] />
    <txp:tag3[1] />
</txp:container>

Help :-)

Undefined¹ :-) Tags will be processed in order of appearance, the internal conflicts in the logic crashed.
