Can I point out that I often disrupt adjectival word order in order to create tension, build rhythm, devise a MacGuffin, and more?
In technical writing, you don’t want anything to jump out at the reader except for direct meaning.
If you’re a journalist, the word count and the publication style offer constraints. However, long-form (features) writing is designed with some clever maneuvering in mind.
With creative writing, it is in your best interest to be born tricky with language.
It is probably better to not think of writing exclusively as “story” and “grammar” and to consider it more akin to, say, card tricks and close magic.
Keep it quick; make it tricky; never obfuscate for obscurity’s sake: go make those words dance in your hands.
If there is no dance, wiriting has no music.
