Using the Minto Pyramid, should I order the paragraphs of my paper by going through the rows of the pyramid like this?

Thesis > Why > How > Where > A > B > C > D > E

Or should I start at the top of the pyramid and follow one branch down to the end leaf, then go up one step and repeat?

Thesis > Why > A > B > How > C > D > Where > E

I'd use the latter option, Thesis > Why > A > B > How > C > D > Where > E. As commenters have mentioned, it's probably best to keep the gap between A,B, and Why as short as possible.

This structure also lends itself more easily to formatting, and it should also cut down on the number of cross-references you need to make from one section to the next (as you're likely able to discuss the Why, How, and Where mostly independently from each other).
