Mod’s Secondary Stats Probability to Increase

When upgrading mods, does the order of the secondary stats play any role in the probability that the stat will increase? There are 4 secondary mod stats. Does the stat in the 1st slot have more of a chance to increase in value than the stat in slots 2, 3, and 4? Is slot 4 the least likely to increase in value when upgrading, or are all four slots equal in probability to increase in value when upgrading? Thanks.

They've never publicized any probabilities for slicing. However, I've sliced and upgraded thousands of mods, and never noticed skew towards certain positions.

That being said, I've also not recorded data surrounding it. I just assume it's an equal probability.

For fun, I just took a look at all my mods with +20 or greater speed. I have a total of 19 mods that are at +20 or above speed. The speed stat positions for those mods:
First - 10
Second - 6
Third - 2
Fourth -1

So, out of my very limited sample size there does appear to be a skew towards the top. However, since my sample size is very small, I wouldn't draw any conclusions from it.

This skew probably comes from the period of time when the lower tier mods would upgrade visible stats before adding new ones.

For example, a blue mod showing Speed and Offense would perform two upgrades before revealing the last two secondary stats. You had a 50% chance of upgrading Speed on each of level 3 and 6. This would make it look like it historically skewed to the top positions.
