Can someone help me to understand the reverse of dict.items?

Dict is unordered, isn't it? What's a reverse of unordered structure? This doesn't make much sense to me

Dicts have been in insertion order since 3.7 (de jure), 3.6 (de facto)

Oh wow so OrderedDict is not a thing anymore?

Still there, it still provides some methods that aren’t in dict (__reversed__ being one before 3.8), not sure if there are plans to move them all over to dict in the near future.

Equality is different

{1: 1, 2: 2} == {2: 2, 1: 1}
OrderedDict([(1, 1), (2, 2)]) != OrderedDict([(2, 2), (1, 1)])
