In the link you provided, the "backwards order" is a reference to little endianism, although they do not state so directly. If you read carefully, they talk about backwards data storage, and discuss how algorithms in C might not work if written to use the Intel method.
Here, we are considering the order of operands in the instruction, which does not effect the way the code runs.
