Priority should be on cases where other things besides ammo and money can be stacked, as often stacking is limited to those.
Often to provide a realistic semblance of volume in a system that otherwise lacks it (slots). This is to avoid, for instance, 3 small gold coin taking the same space in the inventory as 3 large barrels of herring. A nice side effect it making it faster to manage an inventory by moving groups instead of individual items.
Less often, this only serves to aid inventory management.
