Is there a specific reason for calling out two spaces in comments after a period(I realize it's probably for consistency, but I sure don't ever think about this when I write comment)? Otherwise who actually still writes using two spaces after punctuation? :)
I've also asked myself this question. It may have made more sense back then, but nowadays I only get double spaces after a period if Ms. Vim decides to use them there for me, making me do substitution magic to "clean" it later on.
There may even be a way to disable this in Vim (without changing the sources and recompiling), but I never looked after it.
For modern monospaced typefaces and screen resolutions one space after a period is as readable (arguably even better looking) than two.
