Can anyone shed any light on this?

On one of the HGTV shows, choosing the best home-improvement guy, the
judge dinged one of the contestants for putting the drip edge over the
roofing membrane. The judge wanted the membrane over the drip edge to
guarantee all water was kept out, just like the OP thought was correct.
