In short: Source code is not prose; and typographical rules applied to prose on paper make no sense on screens. (Tell me you find this readable.) Question: what is the blind text in different sizes supposed to tell us??? It simply demonstrates that blindly saying "the console width is near the optimal width for eye movement" makes no sense, as it doesn't take font size, proportionality, kerning, or the particular users optimal eye-to-screen distance into account.
