Simple for some, yes, but not for many.

Practically there is nothing wrong with it, but it's not "very
correct" as was claimed, and the increase in legibility and
readability is debatable. There are easier ways to improve legibility
in print and on the web that don't require hacks (using a non
breaking space where that is not what you mean) or regular expressions.
