Those attributes (sans WeightedResourcesUsed) have been around since 
'98. You should expect the set to increase. Decreasing is unlikely. You 
should not expect the order to be consistent. The AttrX format has been 
around for a long time ('98) and will likely stay the same until nested 
ClassAds start to be used, possibly 7.7 or 7.9. Though, it will be 
possible to maintain the two formats during a transition period, e.g. to 
let old userprio work against new negotiators.
