Nope. Just because you refuse to believe in a world beyond the teletype doesn’t 
mean one doesn’t exist. The RFC you cite even admits that; the recommendation 
for 78-character lines is not a MUST in any case.

I’m actually a little surprised you’re citing such a recent RFC, honestly, 
rather than something from the early 1990s.

Also, in case you weren’t aware, just like an Internet-Draft isn’t an RFC, an 
RFC isn’t a standard. This one is a proposed standard, but it’s been one for 
over a decade now, so I wouldn’t hold my breath on it.
