:D

Like quite a few people I've encountered, I set up my text editing
environment to make ≤80cpl convenient and ergonomic, because:

(a) it is such a prevalent convention; and

(b) ≤80cpl is very readable (at least, it is for me and quite a few
other people; and

(c) typically, when I encounter a codebase that doesn't follow ≤80cpl,
it doesn't follow *any* cpl convention and needs taking in hand.

Sticking to ≤80cpl should make it easier for anyone else, who also
does that, to work with the Coreboot codebase without having to modify
their text editing environment.

However...

Ditto ;)
