Why?
Submitting Patches tells about chronological order and last SoB to be
from the submitter.
These both are correct. Note the difference between 'last SoB' and
'SoB to be last [line]'.

Here is the excerpt:
"Notably, the last Signed-off-by: must always be that of the developer
submitting the patch."
