I was going to ask why that is as it seems counterintuitive at first glance. Instead, I Googled it and found the following (excellent) answer at StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5797014/why-do-browsers-m...

I'm just provided the link here in case anyone else was wondering the same thing.

It does not matter in any real life pages.

It did for Trello, to name an example (search for speed in http://blog.trello.com/refining-the-way-we-structure-our-css...).
