My eyes never complained when reading books. Just imagine all  
left-to-right text being right-aligned! The result looks awful and  
rather confuses the eyes because they are used to continue at the  
start of the next line or on visual hooks like an opening brace (block  
indentation to visualize grouping):
/* some text
  * Note: some other text that
  *       continues on another
  *       line but forms a
  *       visual block
  * even more text
  */
int foo(int a, int b, int c,
         int d, int e);

or a _small_ _fixed_ indentation (if you prefer BSD style):
/* some text
  * Note: some other text that
  *   continues on another
  *   line but forms a visual
  *   block
  * even more text
  */
int foo(int a, int b, int c,
   int d, int e);


Have a nice weekend :)
