   I can confirm the challenge.
   
   I also agree, the cited article is about written text, and reading source 
code is not the same as reading natural language text. In general natural 
language is scanned and read very quickly, so long lines make this difficult. 
Code, generally gets scanned slowly as one has to take time to understand it. 
The extra line breaks and indentations can make it harder to follow.
   
   I do agree we need a line length to avoid very long lines, and 120 seems to 
be a limit many projects have adopted. Even Hadoop, which this project forked 
from moved from 80 to 120 lines a year or more back, with no issues I have 
encountered.
