There are human limit to the lengths of the lines of text that you can reasonably ingest before it becomes difficult to seek to the next line. If you measure the number of characters in a line of text in a newspaper, magazine, or novel, you’ll find that there is an upper limit of around 100 characters and a lower limit of perhaps 30. Exceeding either of these degrades reading comprehension and looks amateurish. Using styles to enforce good readability is a great use of CSS.

The backlash over wikipedia implementing a design considered to be higher readability and conducive to better comprehension was a funny case.
