Should similarity always be reduced first?

Not always. If similarity is already within range but AIGC remains the bigger risk, AIGC should take priority.

Can reducing AIGC raise similarity again?

Yes, especially if the rewrite introduces more conventional borrowed phrasing. That is why the main active risk should guide the order.

Can both problems be handled in one pass?

They can be coordinated, but even then you still need a clear primary focus or the work becomes repetitive.
