It makes the text look "broken" because it's not symmetrical. It might not be so bad for a book which uses n-dashes which already have spaces on both sides. First world problems, eh
Agreed. For some reason, the weird spacing of em dashes and ellipses is more distracting to me than the (very) occasional wide letter spacing. The only time I noticed a problem was when the text read "12:4 5 a.m." (note the space between the 4 and the 5), but that's been the only real oddness so far, after about two hours of reading with the new patch. I am a convert. Thanks to everyone who figured this one out.
