My suggestion: forget about \tolerance. It’s low-level TeX stuff,
hardly anybody knows what it does, really (it is one of the dozen or two
parameters governing the line-breaking algorithm), and most people would
not see any difference anyway. I wouldn’t add microtype, OTOH. One
reason: it issues a lot of warnings when you use a font it does not
know. It doesn’t hurt, but some people don’t like warnings. Also, some
people might not really /want/ microtype – it messes around with font
widths, and even with the default settings (which are rather
conservative), it can look a bit strange.

Didn’t even know that.
