I’d typically assume that after most card games, the cards become at least semi-ordered in some way, necessitating shuffling. However, after a standard game of war, I can’t quite figure out how the arrangement would become less random, since the winning and losing card stay together. If they’re indeed mathematically “less random,” after the game, why?

This would depend entirely on whether or not the played cards were collected in a consistent order (winner on top/loser on top), which has been the case in precisely zero of the games of War I’ve ever played.
The only condition that War guarantees upon a played deck is that each card will be worth either more or less than the card next to it. Which was already the case beforehand. The exception would be in the case of a draw, at which point two equal-value cards would probably be collected adjacently.
