A follow-up to myself just for avoidance of doubt: you are indeed allowed
to exceed the soft limit in certain circumstances, but you still need to
have "a reasonable reason", you can't just do this on a regular basis with
no apparent reason whatsoever.
I wouldn't care for example if you had a full stop in column 75 in one
line in an otherwise well formatted description. Otherwise you need to
justify yourself.
