Well, no, and the order isn't the problem at all -- it's that if you set
the font that way in a face, it doesn't really matter what else you add
to the spec afterwards, as far as I can see.

If what you were trying to achieve was to make the face bigger, then you
can increase the size by (for instance) 20% with this:

(set-face-attribute 'variable-pitch nil :height 120)

So this isn't an eww bug, and I'm closing this bug report.
