I'm trying to duplicate the original hardcover formatting, and that's the way it was. It's a fairly common format in printed books.

It's nice that we can change the base font so that it is most readable on our device, but other than that, I try to keep the original styling of the first-edition hardcover, since that's usually where the most thought went about how the author and publisher wanted it to look.

Also, if you move it to the left, you force the dateline to move up, instead of being on the same line. That's also a very nice bit of styling, and losing it would really make the book much less unique. Having every book styled exactly the same makes them bland.
