Never mind the likelihood for this to happen in practice in SQL Server; if I run the query again, theoretically, the row with id 2 could be assigned with row number 3 and the row with id 11 could be assigned with row number 2. So apparently the window order clause is mandatory for the ROW_NUMBER function in SQL Server.
