Yes, the question only applies to final, stable preferences – but AFAIK not everyone agrees that final, stable preferences should be totally ordered.
How do you conclude that a preference is final and stable?
That seems an extremely strong statement to be making about the inner workings of your own mind.
I don't believe any of my own preferences are final and stable. The intent is to characterize the structure that (I believe) an idealized agent would have / that the output of my morality has / that I aim at (without necessarily ever reaching).
