I freely admit a serious preference for justified text (I feel that books published with ragged right look like a 5th-grader made them)--but each to their own. This is part of what I kvetched about earlier--this overwhelming need people seem to have to tailor every. single. thing. to their own preferences. FFS, we all managed to survive reading DT books, which have been justified for most of our lifetimes, without our girly bits or wedding tackle falling off. This endless whingeing about how text "has to be" ragged right or this or that...Christ. It seems like the more choices people are afforded now, the more inflexible they become.

For that matter, on most devices, the user can simply change the alignment to their own choice... so, you can select justify and deal with bad hyphens all you want!
That is certainly NOT true on Kindles, Turtle. FWIW.
