I think there is a difference. A collation is a database object, a
collation order is the order produced when invoking that collation. For
example, in amcheck.sgml:
"""
... an inconsistency in the collation order between a primary server and
a standby server ...
"""
If we wrote just "collation" here I think it would be less clear,
because what's the problem is whether the order is different, not
whether the collation objects are different.
