Ah hah, good to know; I didn’t find that comment in my search. Seems odd to me because the main screenshot I’ve seen <https://www.mediumwell.com/wp-content/uploads/newsprint-justify-example.gif https://www.mediumwell.com/wp-content/uploads/newsprint-just...> exhibits identical line-breaking to greedy, just with inter-character spacing being done. On reflection, the narrow width combined with lack of hyphenation does make that a rather pathological case where there’s not much for Knuth-Plass to work with, beyond perhaps lines 14–16. (I haven’t actually tried Knuth-Plass on it.) Well, even if it did activate Knuth-Plass, it also enabled inter-character spacing which is rather bad for English and a most curious combination.
I’m almost tempted to get out a VM with old IE (I’m guessing it was removed by IE9, though I suppose I could check it on IE11 first which I do have ready access to) and compare it more.
