ange... Nonsense. - "Old English used 3-em space after period, but old Spanish or French didn't, in fact they often used 0 spaces after punctuation". So what? Were they more readable thanks to that? No. I've had to read old Spanish, and it's pretty painful. In fact, 3-em after period old English is quite readable. - "2-spacers are just imitating previous writers; they don't know what they're doing". Imitating wise old customs without knowing the rationale is not bad per se. Deviating from them without a rationale is even worse. ...
