I think a middle ground can be found here. You are allowed not to reorder the properties if there are no properties defined after the one you just set that would override yourself. 
```
elem.style.marginTop = "0px";
elem.style.marginBlockStart = "100px";
...
elem.style.marginTop = "0px"; // fires a style attribute update
```
but
```
elem.style.marginTop = "0px";
elem.style.paddingBlockStart = "100px";
...
elem.style.marginTop = "0px"; // doesn't fires a style attribute update
```
