Move columns that are usually nulls to the end of the table. Having null column trailing, reduces row space footprint (a teensy tad - but can make a difference with VLTs).

But then this not something that the OP has likely in mind? Conceptually - agree whole heartedly: the order of columns in a table has *NO* significance to application development, developers and end-users.
