Ya know I've been using samnsung since 2012. And I must say they've been coming out with all sorts of new features and updates. One thing I think they should implement into OneUI is a notification priority setting. Basically organizing all status bar notifications in a specific order you can set in the settings. For example: you get a game notification and then a Facebook notification and then a text messages. You can set it up where the sms notification will always show front of the line no matter what order all notifications came in. Can be easily implemented in the settings menu by having a full list of all apps and you select the apps in what order you like. If this feature is already in One UI then I have not found it yet. But if not it should be. I have noticed that sometimes the sms notification does make its way to the front but not always. But if your awaiting that count down for the game your playing, you can set that specific game to show first in the status bar even if it was your 7th notification that came in.

Good Lock Notistar will give you more sort options - may or may not be what you want, as I don't use it. I prefer to look at and dismiss my notifications immediately. There is absolutely nothing that important to me that I have to save it for days in the notification area. Besides, I can get my notification history in the notification advanced settings if I did need something.

Yeah, this been bugging me so much. I love the concept of having prioritized notifications at the top but let me assign those priorities to apps. I've missed too many calendar notifications because of them getting lost under other less important notifications.

The Notification order for messages apps current one makes me confused

I prefer the new ones on the top and the older ones on the bottom. When the notification is collapsed.

I would assume the notifications are shown in the order they come in unless you have any marked as priority. Why don't you look at the notifications as they arrive rather than waiting for days? In any case, downloading GoodLock and the Notistar module may help you order them how you want.
