Grrr. How many times on this list have we discussed the "correct" way of notating this, that, or the other thing, according to Ted Ross or whoever? No one brings up the prescriptivist bogeyman there -- we all agree that there are certain standards for what we do, even if we consciously decide to do things differently.
I don't want to get into a shouting match, but single-spacing after a period, especially with a proportionately spaced font, is more than My Way of Doing Things -- it's the correct way. You will not find anyone recognized as an authority on typography who says differently.
