Oh, in that case it's fine, but it's not really a big difference.

Not a big difference? Unnecessary spans wrapped around every sentence in your content seems a _little_ bit different to plain content with post-processing done by Javascript. "But spans don't show up in your browser anyway" is a poor justification of a solution which is akin old school "use whatever works" techniques (tables for layout etc.)

The point still stands that the Javascript and non-Javascript solutions produce the same end-result.

Was that ever the point? I never stated that using spans + CSS would not work - I just said it was a shitty solution. They will both work (and look exactly the same), but using extraneous markup to achieve double-spacing is insane. The point was which solution is better in the long run? I argue that using Javascript is. Every time you change your content and need to wrap spans around your sentences, you might start thinking the same thing.
