I’m in the same boat. I’d rather have more views than longer lines. Currently have a file tree, three editor columns and one terminal column.

Keeping to a shorter line width makes me write shorter functions with less nesting. In my opinion that leads to higher quality code which is more readable (your mileage may vary, I write Erlang which is very terse and expressive which fits that style very well).
