When having span-5 I have 40px of content and a 10px gutter.

With this setting I have more flexibility in column width.

In my case I needed a 200px right column.
Because of the 10px gutter it needs to be 210px.

I would only get this with column_width=20 and gutter=10
So that would also be an option.

I was wondering then why not use column width and gutter 10?
