That’s, loosely, what “Reorder bytes + Delta” does, isn’t it? It groups together the first bytes of floats, delta encodes them and then compresses them, and repeats that for the second, third, and fourth bytes.
The first byte of a IEEE float has 7/8 of the exponent. If these are successive measurements, chances are they have lots of series of identical values, and the delta-encoded stream will have lots of zeroes.
