There will always be some people who prefer longer lines. The

Is there a fundamental disagreement here?
There are those who are driven by an archaic standard from the width
of the terminal screen, and there are those who are driven by the
aesthetics of their code. As always, opinions on aesthetics differ
slightly, but overall, everyone seems to mostly agree that we should
try to keep lines short where possible, but lengthen then when needed.
