Intelligence help, please.

In what order are those stored counter-intelligence points used up?

I have several counter-intelligence projects running, and each turn I check to see how far the first one has progressed. When the green progress bar is almost full or when it says 0.1 years to completion, I reorder the projects and move that one to the back. That way you don't lose the accumulated points next turn, by preventing the project from completing.

Eventually, if I have all 12 slots used for counter-intelligence, I have 10 or 11 which are almost complete. But somehow as the points are used to counter attacks by my enemies, it appears to deplete points from different positions. When there's an enemy intelligence attack, the points don't always deplete the very first CI project or the very Last one. It seems like, some of the projects in the middle are more depleted than the ends sometimes. I haven't been keeping track very carefully so I could be wrong, but that's what seems to be happening? I have to keep checking which projects have the lowest stored points and shuffling those to the front.
