I was also not to convinced by the article, but I wrongly assumed that
this one instead of two thing was being used all over the world by now,
which apparently isn't.

I had in no way suggested that people should change any of their habits
that they have grown used to outside of this special case for our
documentation. Everyone is free to use as many (how about three for a
change? :)) or as few spaces in other contexts like emails and other
text that they produce. I'm sorry if that was the impression from my
earlier post.
