No, you don't get it. The order in which the functions are may be arranged everytime a new interface version is defined. Contrarily to HL1. That's the purpose of this "interface factory" to ensure consistency between DLLs using different versions of the interface. Unless he cares about the version of the interface he hooks onto (but I don't see him doing that), he'll be in big trouble at any minor revision of the interface.
