The user can tell, but scripts can't reliably. Long descriptions are
used in several places and some of these could render a better layout.
A good layout is pleasing for users. So it is not stupid bureaucracy
but making our descriptions better readable (for instance on packages.d.o
and other places).
Kind regards
