The ordering rules can't be implemented strictly because they are self-contradictory leading to https://epage.github.io/dev/rust-style/#m-ambiguity
I'd be curious to know where you disagree and why you find that ordering helpful.

@epage In no particular order: https://epage.github.io/dev/rust-style/#m-pub-priv I generally agree with it. But it is possible for a private type to be more relevant to user understanding than another public type and thus warrants being put above it. https://epage.github.io/dev/rust-style/#m-assoc-trait Sometimes a trait impl is more important than seeing the functions. Probably not true for normal trait impls like Clone or Display. Definitely put those last yeah
