In Starfire (the boardgame "inspiration" for SE4), component order matters since hits are generally from left to right. Shields have to be placed leftmost; armor immediately follows; then come the other systems. Some weapons skip certain component types, while others roll a die to determine which one of the next few components is hit, and some component types have to be placed in contiguous blocks (possibly broken up by bulkheads) with a random number of losses per weapon hit. This is an "outer hull" to "inner core" progression rather than a fore/starboard/dorsal affair.
This is how it worked in SE2. Yes, I played SE2!!
