I don't know how to define an 'adept' since AFAIAC the dust hasn't settled yet (although many claim to be adept, don't ask me why), but I would say that among the RM fans I've met, none of them denies that order has meaning, they just deny that one needs a notion of order to understand the RM (or RT, if I may call it that).
