There are dozens of reasons for arranging your fleet one way or another. A lot of it is up to personal preference. Preferences change depending on the situation. Daytime easy stuff? Flagship protection? Easy night battle? Hard night battle? Did you want a giant wall of text or just why you should put a high luck sub last on 2-3?

2-3 it really doesn't make much of a difference how you arrange your subs. The only night battle where order would slightly matter would be the boss node.

For content like Winter E-5 Hard, I prefer to put my good cut-in ships early. Flagship for CI bonus with my strongest cut-in well protected and healthy. You might blast the boss for 300 and the rest of the battle won't even matter. If you don't hit the boss you could hit a half health BB hime and blow that away instead. Less things to shoot back at you and less targets for the rest of your ships. You still have to worry about boss armor though, so I leave my best double attackers for last. By then most things should be cleaned up, the boss hopefully chipped a good amount, old reliable double attack instead of the godwhydidntyoucutin missed CI chance of despair.
