Low verticality and too much width, which sucks when reading long snippets of code which are 84 columns wide.

I wish more apps had an equivalent to Emacs' follow mode. It spreads narrow content across two (or more) columns.

I use a 21:9 screen and can definitely report that it does not suck. I can now stack 4 snippets of 84 column wide code across my screen instead of one.

Going column to column doesn't disorient you?

Not at all. If it's combined with a tiling window manager it is bliss!
