Alex,

The execution plan is executed top down, starting with the first row source
operation with no children. (It doesn't start at the deepest level, which is
what you seem to be saying.)

So in this case, the plan accesses tables/indexes in this order: 4, 8, 11,
14, 17, 20, 21. The other row source operations are performed in a rollup
fashion, thinking of each of the other RSO as a parent, then that RSO is
executed after all of its children are completed.  So the final rollup steps
are the 2, 1, 0. So the complete order would like:
4, 8, 7, 6, 11, 10, 14, 13, 17, 16, 20, 19, 21, 18, 15, 12, 9, 5, 2, 1, 0
