Many archives and sites display lines off the right margin instead of allowing

Nope. Wrong. David has been doing this for over 2 years:

So it is a user issue. The user must hard wrap because Cygwin site does not.
When he knowingly disregards this he does it to the detriment of all users of
the archives.
