Boarding first is desirable because overhead bin space is v. limited. If you board last, it will be gone.

This is much, much less true in first or business class in my experience. (Same number of bins for fewer seats for a given aisle length.)

I’ve personally found that it depends on the aircraft. It’s especially true in a widebody where economy doesn’t walk through the same cabin, and not so true on a narrowbody with few seats.
