Also whats the purpose of the firing order names? What does it matter which order they fired? Is it just that Delta Halo sounds cooler then 04 or something

I’m sorry, are there now suddenly bigger halo rings?
Originally the forerunners built 12 30,000km wide rings on the less secret greater ark. That ark and 11 rings are destroyed before the array fires. In the process of building those they learned they could make the rings 10,000km wide and they would only need 6 of them. Far more efficient and logistically much easier to move and build. These are the rings you interact with in the games and the smaller and more secretive ark is the one you see.
TL;DR the tech got smaller and more efficient over the millennia it took to build the first 12.
