I would think that's so because canonically Org mode using [fn:1] style. It
looks like you are manually typing the footnote refs and definitions.

Try using C-c C-x f binding.. you will see that Org inserts the footnotes
in the documented style.

I would say that the "fn"-style footnotes remove any kind of ambiguity..
