Unless someone protests, I'd say 112 columns are the new absolute hard limit, and there is no exception for anything except tables. Table compression (i.e. having a few rows with unaligned elements following a super-long element) is good as long as the majority of elements in each column are aligned.
Those limits only affect new code for the next 2 months starting today, and if we're still happy with the limit after 2 months, the rest of the code will be changed gradually where it helps readability. Should we encounter code within the next 2 months where 112 columns are way worse than 120, the limit will be increased to 120 with no additional evaluation time period.
