Guitar(electric) setup order- intonation or string height adjustment first?

it probably doesnt matter a TON... but the way I understand it is adjusting the string height (via saddles) changes the distance between the bridge and nut by a minute amount (making them higher increases tension and increases string length by a millimeter or so, opposite when you go down), therefore changing the intonation. so it would make sense to adjust height, then intonation so that you dont throw one off when adjusting the other.
