In a sense...  Basically, the real rules are
	* inter-sentence space is naturally wider than inter-word one
	* if you need to stretch line, inter-sentence spaces get
proportionally more than inter-word ones.
	* if you need to shrink line, they get proportionally less.
	* there are fun extra considerations for quoted sentences and
friends.

For monospace almost nothing of that can be applied, but the first part
(wider inter-sentence spaces) is more painful to ignore.  The ratio for
normally typeset text is going to be less than 2, but it's easier on
eyes to approximate it with 2 than with 1...
