But I guess my point is here, there are also solutions available to the production department to mitigate the worst of something like this when faced with the art as it is.

There's a reason I do very few double page spreads and don't really ever write them for myself.

There's also the matter of people reading digitally. The "shrink and rotate to fit" solution doesn't work for me.

Yep, I read a bunch digitally and it always pulls me out of the experience when a DPS comes up.

It reduces the effect too. The whole point of a DPS is it takes up double the space for drama.
