Thanks for the fun read! I very much agree with the view of Matthew
Butterick that double line spacing is inappropriate. As he writes in
his 'Typography for Lawyers' book, line spacing approximately 130% of
the text's point size is usually ideal, and most certainly nowhere
near 200%.

Best wishes,

Sebastian
