80 character is better for us old coders who need a larger font size but still want to see two files side by side on a small laptop screen without side scrolling.

I'd love to accommodate you, but I'm still struggling to get my team of 8 to agree that we should impose any line length limit. My terminal is 180 characters wide because I have some team members that don't seem to believe in line breaks as a force of habit.

You don't even know how long these 100 line functions really are! It's abusive, bottom line.
