Highly convenient that your preference is “science” whereas other people’s preference is just a preference. I’m not a ligatures fan myself but it seems completely arbitrary and don’t see at all how it’s scientific. You could convince me otherwise by posting some references to this science.

My preference is easier to read and edit. Readability and editability come with consistency, and that's science. Ligatures break the consistency.
