Interesting. I don't like the idea of 2 spaces after a period. Internet research on this topic seems to favor one space.

I'm not sure where you got that.

I googled "sites favoring 1 space after a period"

*joke*

For me I notice reading the above (especially in monospace font) the 2 spaces are jarring, and distract me from the material I'm reading.

FWIW, I'm with you on that. But I think it's just one of those
aesthetic / what-you-grew-up-with things. You're never going
to find consensus, only an amicable compromise. Or a house-style
to follow.

What's really weird: The Harbrace College handbook says "Two spaces follow the period, question mark ...." Yet the book consistently uses one space in its own text!

Editors: who needs 'em?
