Grrr, I hate readability! Just the idea of proper line lengths makes me angry.

But I think everybody has to create an account, not just us salty grandpas. Like I said, if it was a product goal, it's a sneaky way to do it. Not saying that is the case.

Sneaky indeed. So sneaky, in fact, that it would be completely ineffective.

I dunno, I bet they get an uptick in signups, especially right after launching this design.
