Look, I'm just trying to correct some misguided methods which only result in
making articles unreadable. The only case in which sidestacked templates
works, on even a 20 inch monitor, is with less than 12 point type. Which,
IMHO is way too small for screen. Print, sure, if its within margins, but
not screen.

Put in plain brown wrapper English, unreadability means the experience of
reading Wikipedia has elevated vaccum retention levels. Which, IMHO goes
against our implicit mandate to make the Internet not... do that.
