A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.

Looks like it should be more like 100 - so that it never has to wrap to a second line in any view.

144 is excessive but 100 is good? Eh. We don't need to ride a knife's edge here. 144 is fine.

100 will still wrap if browser is resized, or on phone.

44% is hardly a "knife-edge" !

Yes, 100 is still "a lot" - could well be shorter.

80 or 72 ... ?
