I would guess the order just indicates they started as a fighter, not that they are mainly a fighter. So a 1 level dip into fighter first for heavy armor and a fighting style, then melee warlock from there makes sense to me.

Otherwise, maybe it's just people thinking that fighter 5/warlock 5 gets you just as many attacks as a full fighter, and also fireballs/hex etc

Oh! I hadn't considered the 1 level fighter dip for heavy armor and fighting style. Good point.
