What's the point of displaying canceled orders?

I know this sounds weird, dumb and nitpicky, but what's the point of having canceled orders displayed on our Order history if they aren't even going to be processed? I mean, isn't a canceled order equivalent to no order at all? Why display them if we can't do anything with them? Personally, this kind of things sticks out like a sore thumb as I hate seeing stuff like that being displayed next to a confirmed order, especially when the contents of both orders are the same.

I would have to ask Darren, but it was probably so people could see a history of their orders in case they had a question about it.

Thank you so much for the reply!

The reason I'm asking this question is because I originally canceled one of my pledges in order to beef it up a little bit. Little did I know, however, that I could purchase add-ons without outright canceling existing orders (oops!).

 

But this was the first time I ever backed your project, so obviously there was going to be a bit of confusion on my part. But everything is fine now that I managed to have my beefed-up pledge confirmed.

 

Can't wait for PoE to come out!

 

Keep up the good work!
