I see your point but I don't share your conclusion. If you have right
aligned code like you describe, with the original layout, you don't see it
on the screen, but you see the scrollbar and know that there is more to look
for. But now, if you have long source code like in the example link, you
still don't see it completely on the screen, but you don't see the scrollbar
either, having no visual hint that there is more to see somewhere.
