It explains why some people prefer left justification on an e-book reader.

Fully justified text looks better if you just look at the page. But when it isn't done right it can be less [conveniently] legible than left justified text.

This is why I consider user configurability such an important issue. We all all different and if you ask 3 people about what is an ideal book layout you get 5 different answers.
