A relation which is asymmetric must also be irreflexive. Asymmetry is defined as:
If any evaluation E was sequenced before itself, this would yield:
This is a contradiction of the asymmetry requirement, meaning that sequenced before is implied to be irreflexive. Ideally, this should be clearly stated, and it should be stated that it is a strict partial order since it fulfills all requirements of one.
