The problem with saying things like 10% of the population of is that say you're trying to generalise to the entire world. With the world population now standing at 6,697,254,041 that would mean you need 669,725,404.1 people or 81836.75 people to get a meaningful sample. Not feasible, one would think.

What's another advantage for independet groups apart from no order effect?

IMO thats a weakkkkkk advantage anyway. Its the disadvantage of another design rather than a direct advantage of IG design.

Yeah, it's a pretty dodgy one. That's why I was looking for others.

If Google counts as God, then yes.

Yer I came across this problem earlier in the year. I realised there aren't many advantages because it's the worst design to use (according to psychologists).. Just go with easy and efficient, and there being no order effect seems to be accepted so if they ask for just one go with the first, but if you have to write two, "no order effect" seems to be okay too.
