I find it surprising how you can make such a claim about the whole of humanity (!) without even feeling the need to have a pro forma study to back it up. Also, not everything that applies to prose also equally applies to code. Personally I find overly narrow code (80 cols) to be much *harder* to read than code that is 100 cols wide. Keep in mind that even if the break is at 100 cols, lines will rarely exceed that limit. And if they do to *understand* the code, the further down the line it is the less important are the details usually. I don't know why anyone would force a display issue onto everyone. It imples the arrogant stance that every human being has the exact way of reading and writing code. Everyone can configure her editor to what she wants (including line breaks and such). If people were to force pixel sizes of editor fonts, everyone would immediately recognize what a stupid idea this would be. Even though I could claim that the vertical formatting is all messed up when you don't display my code with the correct font size! Ridiculous, right?
