Books were produced before computers, and with very good typesetting. One difference between websites and books is that theee is a feedback loop with books where somebody ia at looking at the layout and either adjusting the spacing subtly, or even editing the text to avoid problems. Sometimes this is just to ensure that left justified text isn’t too ragged on the right edge, sometimes it’s to avoid river of space rubbing through a paragraph, and sometimes it’s editing or typesetting to avoid orphans. But text on a page is set for a set layout, and that’s where the web really differs.
