I fail to see how this example is a good example relevant to the discussion whether to read published vs suggested vs chronological order.

I was unclear, both the Black Company and the Dread Empire are examples where the author jumps around chronologically within the individual books. For example, The White Rose jumps back and forth between three different times. In the Dread Empire, Cook jumps around a lot chronologically.
