Designated set number/ date of manufacture question

Posted By: Mike

I was wondering why the designated numbers given to a card set don't necessarily descend along with the year, or in a logical manner. Example:

1929 W553
1930 W554
1909 W555
1927 W560

Wouldn't it much simpler if the designated numbers given ,and the year manufactured descended/progressed in order ? This "hasn't" kept me awake at night. Just curious....
