Soft hyphens really are an atrocious character that should be completely avoided.

And, within the past few years, Auto-Hyphenation in devices/browsers and word processors has gotten so much better—so if you're on a modern device or using recent apps/programs, you shouldn't have a need for manually inserting soft hyphens.
Well, you can buy the latest Kindle Paperwhite and KF8 still doesn't have hyphens. So if you read KF8, you either read without hyphens or your read with soft hyphens. I know KFX has hyphens, but KFX is an abomination.
