 For the Birds
Rabbi Henoch Leibowitz, in his Chidushei Ha Leiv to parshas Metzorah, explains the variance differently, based on the comments of Rabbeinu Bachya.
Moreover, says Rabbi Leibowitz, the change in order is a message to the person himself, to be careful in the way he talks.
Although Rabbi Leibowitz does not make this point, it is certainly appropriate, in the context of the punishment of tzara'as, to become sensitive to one's use of language even in terms of subtle nuances in speech.

 Yeshiva Chofetz Chaim: Rabbinical Seminary of America Information
The yeshiva was established in 1933 by Rabbi Dovid Leibowitz a disciple of Rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel ("The Alter of Slabodka").
Since the passing of Rabbi Dovid Leibowitz in December of 1941 (students have noted that they found out about the attack on Pearl Harbor when they returned from the funeral), the Chofetz Chaim yeshiva has been headed and developed by his son, Rabbi Henoch Leibowitz as its Rosh yeshiva ("dean").
Rabbi Henoch Leibowitz, the current Rosh Yeshiva, continually reminds his students that as important as it is to become a lamden ("analytical scholar") and a great pedagogue, it is even more important to become a mentch ("a good human being").

 The Real Thing
Rabbi Henoch Leibowitz, in his Chidushei Lev to our parsha, asks why it was, in \fact, necessary for God to remind Avraham, of the precise identity and character of the land he was leaving.
He answers that although it was true that Avraham knew its identity and had natural feelings for his home where he grew up, God wanted to make sure that those natural feelings should be aroused, and that Avraham leave his home with those natural thoughts in mind.
Rabbi Leibowitz goes on to cite the great student of Rabbi Yisroel Salanter, Rabbi Simcha Zissel Ziev, the 'Alter' literally ' the old man,' or, more loosely, 'the sage' of Kelm, as saying that, in general.

Much of the goings-on in MTY must be seen in the light that it is part of the large and organic Chofetz Chaim system, and must respond to changes within the larger organism.
Chofetz Chaim is headed by Rabbi Henoch Leibowitz, and as he had advanced in age, the manifestations of his gradually encroaching retirement have cause major ripples throughout his entire educational empire.

In the story of the man who was mekalel, cursed Hashem with the Divine name (Vayikra 24:10 - 24:23), Moshe wasn't sure what his punishment should be.
Rav Leibowitz asked that the question of why they weren't placed together still wasn't answered: so what if one gets death but we don't know which one, and the other person's punishment is altogether unknown, let them sit together in jail?
The Rosh HaYeshiva said since it was possible the blasphemer would get no punishment from court, it was unfair that he should be with a man getting death.

In his discussion of this comment of Ibn Ezra, Rav Henoch Leibowitz zt"l is cited as drawing an analogy to an exhausted mother who, after a full day of tending to her household, finally puts all her children to bed and falls into a deep sleep.
Just as it seems as though no noise in the world can wake her, the baby's cry from the room down the hall awakens her immediately.
Similarly, Rav Leibowitz remarked, the needs of our brethren must grab our attention – to whatever extent possible – even during times of stress and pressure.
