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.
