Most text system does nut justify text as good as TeX either.
Too true. The hyphenation done by BD is terrible and very difficult to read the text reasonably. You really need a hyphen dictionary to do a good job.

Even without hyphenation full justification can look pretty good with kerning but none of the electrical systems seem to support that.
