When you get to into definitions of “order” it’s about how well details can be summarized by some other means. The more stares that are equivalent, the more entropy.
If all gas molecules are ordered into a cube in perfect alignment and static, that’s easy to describe and ordered, if they are randomly bouncing around the container, that’s high entropy with nearly infinite equivalent ‘states.’
