This applies to all verbal interjection. You use some form of verbal interjection too, but of course you don't even notice that you are doing it, and you would also get angry if some other people told you that your speech pattern is stupid and that you should change how you naturally speak.
Go ahead and ask them to remove this from the Frequently Asked Question section then.

Pixel-perfect alignment is not a hard rule. It's only for a list of homogenous items would they need to be aligned perfectly.
But when the elements are heterogenous, as the screenshot in your link refers to, the human brain does weird thing to what we see, and alignment has to be adjusted for it to "look right".
This is particularly well-known in font design, with things like variable ascender height, cap height, and kerning.

>Note that due to optical illusion, round and pointed capitals (for instance the O and A) will extend a little above the cap height to make them appear as tall as the flat-topped capitals.
The runtime has to maintain a graph of those signals tree in memory at all time, no? Compared to React that can throw away the vdom after it finished the render.
Saying that the Fed can arbitrarily create and destroy money misses the point, that they then have to buy SOMETHING with those money, and there are strict rules about what they can buy, and it just happens that the Treasury controls the supply of the primary asset class that the Fed is allowed to buy. Once you clear out all the dance and ceremony, you arrive at the conclusion that the Treasury issues new money by issuing new securities.
If the private banks have conjured up 100x the monetary base in 1970, then when the population doubles by 2020, the banks cannot multiply further up to 200x. The treasury has to expand the base while the banks keep their multiplier fairly constant.
And also, the degradation that you see on sun-damaged clothing is mostly on the dye, not the underlying fabric itself.
And if you wonder, if money cannot be created or destroyed, how does a monetary system handle the population tripling over the past 50 years?
The answer is national debt. The US national debt is just an artifact of this double entry bookkeeping. In order for there to be +money in the economy for the ever-growing number of citizens to do commerce with, the treasury incurs on itself -money. That's national debt.
The corollary then, if the US ever pays back all of its national debt, the economy will crash because there just aren't cash available for people to do commerce with. A +90trillion on the government balance sheet equals a -90trillion on the private sector balance sheet.
