I have to agree. If you are going to fully justify, you need to have more words
on a line so that there is more "give". As it stands, there are too many rivers
in the text, which to the trained eye are a tell-tale sign of bad design (like
using an open signle quote instead of an apostrophe). To the untrained eye it's
just distracting. Centering is not the best option, since that, too, is
difficult to read in body text format. Left justification is the easiest to read
for this style of text. You could drop the size by half even, and still be
legible.
