Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Workbook, add_worksheet() hardcodes the index to the size of the {_worksheets} arrayref. So, #2 won't work.
However, #1 may be able to work, if you're willing to break encapsulation. But, I'll let jmcnamara show you the code. The names and indices are used all over the place. It's not enough to reorder the {_worksheets} arrayref.
Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.
