I do this too with my iA writer windows - 3 columns with various ideas and texts. What I found is that the slim width of each window helps me to write better. Broad windows with their endlessly long lines made me loss focus on what I was writing.
Perhaps it comes from me being a 80-character line limit programmer and have always limited the width of my editor.

Ditto, except that I use Vim on a single file with vertical splits, so that that I have different parts of the same file in view at the same time.
With a large monitor I typically have 3x vertical splits on the same file.
