No computational difference. The 6507 doesn't care, it's just another zero
page address to it. The two variables don't even have to be sequential.
The only time you _have_ to have the least significant byte first is if you
are calculating a 16 bit address for indirect addressing.
My preference is to have the variable names distinct so XPOSI & XPOSF or
some variation thereof. I also typically have all of the XPOSIs together so
I can use XPOSI,X in a loop.
