I'm not sure what you mean by "destroying" the ordered list. I tried your
example, and when I marked a checkbox in the unordered sublist as complete, with
C-c C-c, the top-level ordered list was unaffected.

So, for example if we have

1. [ ] Ordered list item 1
   - [ ] Sublist item 1
   - [ ] Sublist item 2
   - [ ] Sublist item 3
2. [ ] Ordered list item 2

Then, when I hit C-c C-c on one of the sublist items, I get the following:

1. [-] Ordered list item 1
   - [ ] Sublist item 1
   - [X] Sublist item 2
   - [ ] Sublist item 3
2. [ ] Ordered list item 2

In this case, the first item in the ordered list is put into the intermediate
state, as indicated by [-], and the sublist item is marked as completed. This is
the designed behavior of plain lists in org mode.

Thanks,
Rohit
