Peter, dude. You might not be aware that not everyone in the world uses the English alphabet. Shocking, but true. Some people even speak and write entire languages that aren't Latin-based. Even more shocking. I did explain this in another thread about text justification in XD, but I'm not going to go find it and link to it like you have done. Between Chinese and Arabic alone, 20% of all living humans use letters and characters that should be or have certain uses that must be justified. As to what originally brought me to this topic on these forums a year and a half ago, I just happened to have been living in China. And my agency's cilent (rightly) wanted their Chinese text justified on the touch-screen exhibition that they were buidling in Shanghai. The print designers in the department, the art director, the project manager, and even the client could justify the text in every program on their computers. Just me using XD for an interactive experience couldn't. And who was this client who wouldn't accept that the text would be justified in the final application and demanded that I represent it in prototypes? Only Alibaba. And you can't tell a company worth more than a trillion dollars that I can't do the thing they can all do in Word and PowerPoint. So, I got to stay late for weeks updating their text content by making transparent gifs of text blocks in AI then moving them into XD instead of just clicking the little fully-justify button. The second project I did for Alibaba was their interactive pavillion for the Tokyo Olympics. Low and behold, Japanese is another language that should be justified. So, 2 of the 3 langages I had to make the VR/AR registration/profile-sharing app with were supposed to be justified. That was fun making gifs for. And then covid canceled it, anyways. So, in summary. You're really passionate about not thinking that anyone else on Earth isn't you.
