Does the torque sequence on the head make a diffrence?

I have found all the torque specs for my 1968 F100 300 but was wondering if there is a specific sequence to appling the torque to the bolts?
Thanks as always

FORDSIX PERFORMANCE • View topic - 4.9L 6 cyl Torque sequence IMAGE
Broadly speaking, start in the center and alternate toward the ends. Torque about half way to specs and then in ten lb steps
