Without justification, that=E2=80=99d look like =E2=80=9Cargument from igno= rance=E2=80=9D, so unless a real reason is found, I believe it would be better to remove a truncation that will very certainly in fact bother at least some users (while there=E2=80=99s still 0 data point on how non-truncation might be bothering, and that=E2=80=99s what being asked).
