Question:subsop() depends on order of substitution?

THis came up in another maple forum.  Any one knows why

restart;
expr := -(r0+Delta_r)^2*(46*r0-41*Delta_r)*r0^5;
subsop(1=a,2=b,3=c,4=d, expr);

gives error Error, improper op or subscript selector

but changing the order works ok

subsop(4=d,3=c,2=b,1=a, expr);

               # a*b*c*d

Looked at help and nothing there I could see that would explain this.
