Just what the heck does this modifier do?

I was trying to create a smart playlist that didn't update/refresh so much, and I discovered that if I add the sequence modifier followed by a limiting rule, the playlist seems to "stabilize".
e.g.
Sequence
Limit to 400 MB

It seems this has destroyed all chance and randomness, however, by which I mean if I change the limit to 200 MB I get the top 1/2 of the old list. If I create another smart playlist with the same rules I get the exact same songs in the same order. If I add media/music that fits the rules part of the smart playlist, the new songs will sort of haphazardly get sprinkled into the old playlist.

This isn't necessarily bad, I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. Obviously "sequence" is doing some sort of ordering, but I can't figure it out.
