Numeric order does not matter is what we hold, it's strictly the wording of the laws that determines precedence of one over the other.
On that note, we encourage liberal interpretation of AI laws -- it is the fault of the uploader if a law has a valid interpretation that causes a lot of people to die. The AI must make sure it has a good explanation of why it could be interpreted that way, and the uploader has to make sure it cannot be interpreted that way. Overriding law 1 is the most common mistake non-traitors make.
