Default Question for Phoenix users

A little background before the question. I'm planning to make a change to the Equipment and Load-Out blocks to increase the printing width of the various descriptive fields of items, and usage checkboxes. The left edge of their print areas will remain the same, the right edge, however, will now extend out to the block's right edge, as seen in this example (png).

On to the question: I was thinking of making the change without an option to allow the previous behavior. Is there anyone who dislikes the change enough that they'd want such an option?

Well, if it isn't too much of a bother, I'd like to have this option.
With longer descriptions it gets a bit cluttered for my eyes. But maybe that's just me ;).

BTW: Thanks for the great work!

I prefer the wide format, and won't miss the narrow version at all :D

Personally I like it, more efficient use of space.

I turn off the descriptive text for equipment, so I don't think this is going to be a big change for me.

I like the change, and wouldn't want to go back to the old way--less wasted space is a good thing! If you do provide an option for toggling, I definitely vote for the new way being the default behavior.

I haven't looked at a sheet in a while, but it looks fine to me.
