I dunno. I always thought "entropy = disorder" was a big simplification, almost in the realm of lies to children. Entropy is what it is; the pattern detection algorithms in our heads are not always very good at judging global properties such as order.
I do have a degree in Physics, so perhaps that's the source of this belief I've held - probably from countless impromptu discussions with fellow physics geeks. You wanna know the entropy of this system? Calculate it, don't eyeball it.
