Is it worth breaking the 80-column limit for this?

Deepak,

It was much nicer before.

It can be awkward to break eg a + operation at the 80 character limit.
But function argument stand by themselves.

Hi Julia and Ian,
I wanted to take advantage of the relaxation of 80 column limit to 100
columns and hence proposed combining the lines. Are you saying this is
allowed only in certain cases?

Please confirm and I will handle it accordingly.

Hi Deepak,

80 columns is still the preferred limit. I think the relaxation is mostly to avoid the need to split sub-expressions across lines in really ugly ways to keep within the 80 columns at the expense of readability.
