Proposed: that Times Roman[1] is one of the most horrible, butt-ugly, and difficult to read typefaces in current wide use ever devised by the fertile mind of man[2], particularly when displayed on a computer screen possessing limited resolution[3] or when used in small point sizes, and that its use for essentially any purpose requiring legibility should be deprecated.
Discuss.
[1] Plus, of course, its family of related faces such as Times New Roman (Monotype's name for the face; Times Roman is Linotype's name) and their look-alikes.
[2] Historical note: Times Roman was originally developed by the Times newspaper, in order to jam as much text as was humanly possible with then-existing printing technology onto a sheet of cheap, poor-quality newsprint paper while still retaining some semblance of readability.
[3] Relative to print; my screen is around 110dpi.
