The "rationale" in the coding style surely avoids such balancing
and thus should just be burned.
I often try to reach those 80 cols rule, but I prefer descriptive class,
method and variable names.
This rule made a lot of sense when there were 1024x768 displays all over
the place. IMO it's good to have "some" limit, but 80 is insanely low.
