| Sep 7, 2020 at 21:27 | comment | added | einpoklum | @Ollie: But what happened on SE is not the W3C's recommendation anyway, so, in particular, it is not the recommendation of the underlying research. | |
| Sep 7, 2020 at 20:59 | comment | added | Ollie | Huh. If W3C's recommendation is based on the research(?) and came out to less than 1.5, then I'm curious as to why we went to 1.6, then back to 1.5. | |
| Sep 5, 2020 at 16:34 | comment | added | einpoklum | @MaxD: It is actually slightly confusing, because 1.4.8 is level AAA while 1.4.12, with about the same recommendation, is AA level. But none of them say a site should have 1.5-2x spacing by default for everyone. The assumption is that there is a _mechanism for enabling more spacing. | |

| Sep 5, 2020 at 0:41 | comment | added | MaxD | I'm having some trouble interpreting all these convoluted wordings. Maybe because I'm neither a native speaker nor have much of a webdesign background. So you're saying the 1.5-2 recommendation is ONLY aimed at sites that explicitly focus on special needs users? And that SE staff just copied the number without properly understanding its intended meaning? | |

| Sep 4, 2020 at 21:01 | comment | added | MaxD | Here, on the other hand: "Many people with cognitive disabilities have trouble tracking lines of text when a block of text is single spaced. Providing spacing between 1.5 to 2 allows them to start a new line more easily once they have finished the previous one." | |
