I would need a repeatable test case (and will be checking your example out
later) that the rearranging happens _after_ you hit the next button.  I
believe your example is DD rearranging the partitions on the setup screen,
before you write anything to the disk.  If indeed DD is displaying one
thing then writing something else when you hit next that is a bug that
needs to be reported.
