thiemowmde added a comment. I think users will vote for option 1. It's tempting. "All we need to do to solve the problem of the world not being in order is to have this discussion one time, then it will be solved forever." Years later new users will get frustrated because they have good arguments to change the order but their arguments can not be heard because this will "magically" change the order on all existing items and will make some longtime users upset. This boils down to the same arguments why Wikibase supports pineapple as a gender and a gender on vegetables: the world is //not// in order.
I suggest to: 1. let people decide the order on each individual item. 2. have a preferred order and position when (and only when) adding a new property to an item. This is similar to what the property suggester does. You can stick with the suggestion if it's fine or you simply don't care, but you don't have to.
