CDC would process the redo logs in order, as they come available. Currently, CDC requires that all Oracle Redo logs, from the last change processed to current change, are available on disk before it processes anything.

SQL can be unavailable, due to error or design, for a period of time. If logs could be processed in order, rather than when all are available, recovery of the changes could be managed without a potentially huge storage requirement.
