Yes, yes, yes!

My suggestion: forget about \tolerance.  It’s low-level TeX stuff,
hardly anybody knows what it does, really (it is one of the dozen or two
parameters governing the line-breaking algorithm), and most people would
not see any difference anyway.  I wouldn’t add microtype, OTOH.  One
reason: it issues a lot of warnings when you use a font it does not
know.  It doesn’t hurt, but some people don’t like warnings.  Also, some
people might not really /want/ microtype – it messes around with font
widths, and even with the default settings (which are rather
conservative), it can look a bit strange.

Didn’t even know that.

My opinion: remove both.
