Default Rotating Injectors Among Cylinders

My per-cyclinder avg EGTs are as follows:

#1: 1370
#2: 1390
#3: 1450
#4: 1450
#5: 1480
#6: 1430

The difference is 110 degrees between the coldest and hotest cylinder.
A colleague of mine says that is a bit high for a fuel-injected system.
Is that right?

He suggest rotating the injectors from the hotest cylinders to the
coldest ones to try to better balance them (so, for example, swapping #5
and #1). I am not sure why one would do that. Have others done that
with success?
