It's definitely something I would recommend in general, but I'm not sure if it would solve this particular problem (reordering blocks is perhaps a bit bold for a prettifier).

Maybe prettifier was the wrong word. I've definitely used code formatting tools that offer sorting of certain syntax elements as a feature. (Python imports in PyCharm springs to mind)
