There are two number 7s in the list, but Iain Boyd confirms its in the right order.

As there are two tunes for each dance it would be nice for them to be numbered by the dance number but still appear in the right order with main and alternate tunes. The database has a tune priority field for mapping tunes to publications but this does not appear to have any effect on the ordering as displayed on the web page. So assigning numbers 1-24 appears to be the only way to get the requested order even though it makes the links with the dances less obvious.

Seeing that Athole Highlanders already had a tune priority set to 50 (all the others had the default 10) belatedly reminded me of Anselms directive not to touch any priorities in RSCDS publications so I undid my very small experiment with tune priorities and have given them numbers 1-24.
