A. each with a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
B. each with consistent orders of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
C. each having a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
D. all having a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
E. all with consistent orders of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
Stuck between A and C;
I think both are grammatically correct but there is a subtle change of meaning .A conveys the meaning in a more clear and concise manner.
The modifier is working like a pronoun appositive ( if there is something like this!!!!)
In C, 'each having ' can refer either to similar type of construction or to every Romance language.
Only in A, each with clearly modifies Romance language.
