  My two cents, one for each statement:

  1- As the tool is named LatLong, it seems fair to hope that the
default order, at installation at least, would be this one.

  2- I don't know if possible to message the user at installation or
upon first use.  If any of this is possible, perhaps a message stating
the default and indication that is possible to change could be an idea
to consider.
