 A follow-up to myself just for avoidance of doubt: you are indeed allowed 
to exceed the soft limit in certain circumstances, but you still need to 
have "a reasonable reason", you can't just do this on a regular basis with 
no apparent reason whatsoever.

 I wouldn't care for example if you had a full stop in column 75 in one 
line in an otherwise well formatted description.  Otherwise you need to 
justify yourself.
