Keep in mind that the TCP/IP protocol suite's reassembly and reordering of packets happens during the transport phase. Some firewalls are designed to function just at the Internet or data layer level of abstraction. Without the proper sequence or the absence of a deleted packet, a stateful inspection firewall cannot make any inferences about the traffic being inspected.
