Taxon photos change order after a taxon change

Description of problem:

I’ve been doing a lot of taxon changes at the moment for all the new genera of Australian tree frogs and I have noticed that when the taxon is swapped with a new name, all of the taxon photos are moved across to the new name but the order is completely changed. For example, I am about to swap Litoria adelaidensis into Coggerdonia adelaidensis. Currently the taxon page looks like this:

If I go into ‘Edit photos’ to see them all, it looks like this:

After committing the [taxon change](https://www.inaturalist.org/taxon_changes/162043), all of the photos transfer across but in a completely different order:

This has happened with pretty much every taxon change I have committed in the past few days. Happy to give some more examples etc. if needed :)

I have had the same issue with taxon swaps.
It may be because the order of pictures is tied to the taxon? I have no idea.

I have also noticed just now that some of the common names also change their order. Maybe related?
