Do you read short story collections in order? I usually jump around
i mean it can be interesting to read in chronological order to be able to really see the progression of style/themes but it's not like there's a prescribed order for these things who cares
Yes, because the assumption is usually that they were arranged into the order they appear in for a specific reason.
In order because I have a rigid view of correct behavior according to one of my therapists.

Can anybody point out a collection where the order makes something apparent that would otherwise go unnoticed
in order because books go from left to right and it's madness to have to go back

Usually in order as it shouldn't really matter but I would probably read two different author's short story collections concurrently to contrast styles.
