Picture a set of things that were arranged properly, and then something sweeping that arrangement apart. Order is everything sitting where it belongs; dis- takes the arrangement away. So the picture inside disorder is less 'messy by nature' than 'the order got broken' — and the same broken-arrangement idea works for a room, for a crowd in the street, and for a body.
From the word’s history
The verb disorder (late 15c.) means 'destroy or derange the order of, throw into confusion', from dis- 'not' + order (v.). The noun follows: 'lack of regular arrangement' (1520s), then 'tumult, disturbance of the peace' (1530s), then 'an ailment, a disturbance of the body or mind' by 1704. The three modern senses are that one broken arrangement moving house.
這個字的歷史剛好照著「亂 → 動亂 → 疾病」走：動詞 disorder（15 世紀晚期）是「把原有的秩序弄壞、弄成一團混亂」，由 dis-（不）加 order 組成。名詞 1520 年代先指「沒有規則的排列」，1530 年代出現「騷亂、擾亂治安」，到 1704 年才有「身體或心智的失調、病症」。三個意思不是各自長出來的，是同一個「秩序被打散」一路搬家。
