Fisher's order of selection for scrapping

Did Fisher choose the first ship he did not want instead of working upwards from the bottom of the list?

In that interpretation, Fisher selected an unwanted ship as he worked down the list rather than starting from the bottom.

Fisher may have gone down a list until he found a ship he did not want, instead of working upwards from the bottom. This is an interpretation of his selection process; the order of the list is unspecified.
