The OP seems to be asking for the Python order of the import statement because it allows for simpler auto-completion when typing it:

    from math import square_root as sqrt, abs as absolute
    from math import * as not_math

In a format like this, your language service can open up `math` immediately after the `from math` and start auto-completing the various types inside math on the other side of the `import`.

Whereas the `import abs from math` often means you type `import` have no auto-complete for what comes next, maybe type ` from math` then cursor back to after the import to get auto-completion hints.

It's very similar to the arguments about how the SQL syntax is backwards for good auto-complete and a lot of people prefer things like PRQL or C# LINQ that take an approach like `from someTable where color = 'Red' select name` (rather than `select name from someTable where color = 'Red'`).
