I would recommend not over-thinking the matter. Otherwise soon you
will start wrapping your <p>s in <ol>/<li>s too to ensure they stay in
the correct order.

Using <dl> for ordered groups is perfectly fine.

(The specification points this out as well: "The order of the list of
groups, and of the names and values within each group, may be
significant.")
