Po Lu, congratulations, you fooled us this time!

Your passion about it made us think it was a convention or
standard that was supposed to be enforced, a new rule that
said ridiculously short docstrings lines at 64 chars have
been increased to allow 72 after people freaking out about it,
and now you wanted it back to 64 out of concern
for smartphones :O

And it wouldn't have helped the smartphone situation anyway
since for that, it would have had to be a convention or rule
that was enforced and people were to stick to!

Many of my docstrings are closer to 80 cols than 72 BTW, just
think what insane work, trimming all that down to 64 in
solidarity with Android GNU Emacs users.

Well, I'm happy you all hadn't lost it, let's leave it at
that :)
