Wouldn't it be much more effici-
ent and more readable to just use word
wrapping? I find hyphenation to create unread-
able documents, because it always for-
ces me to stop and rewind be-
fore I can read the next word, which is extre-
mely annoying when you have a wide-
screen display.

Hyphenation also looks unprofessional when it's used in a title. E.g.:

"The D programming language. Modern convenience. Modeling power. Native effi-
ciency."

It just looks so awful. Imagine Apple using it, advertising their newest i-
Phone. Ugh!
