Limiting oneself to 80 character per line is not an archaism. It has
to do with typographic rules which were designed to cope with how our
vision works, you'll find this in any book about typesetting. Going
beyond ~80 characters, it becomes hard to quickly jump from one line
to the other when you read (you need to use your thumb).
Best,
