There is no way that we can ever enforce a single, unified width. Screen sizes

So, the only fallback is to never split.  Then it is up to each end-developer 
to modify their display to handle the long lines.

I would instead prefer the following guideline: "There is no upper limit to line 
width; only split long lines if it increases readability of the code".

That's fine too. I do the same, when embedding a toMap-type call in the middle of a method invocation, and I forsee the need to add/remove fields in the future.

In the commit you commented on, I believe I only combined lines that seemed to be arbitrarily split on individual method arguments, due to some random screen width. It never really seemed at all consistent.

I also don't really see the need to go thru and force-reformat everything. Just do it as we run into stuff. However, I would prefer it if such reformatting changes were committed separately, and not mixed in with other real stuff.
