while the newer edition seems cold and mechanical.
It is hard to immediately see what makes the difference with the newer

+edition. Everything looks neat and tidy, possibly even @qq{better}
because it looks more computerized and uniform. This really puzzled us
for quite a while. We wanted to improve computer notation, but we first
had to figure out what was wrong with it.
In spacing, the distribution of space should reflect the durations
between notes. However, as we saw in the Bach Suite above, many modern
scores adhere to the durations with mathematical precision, which leads
-to poor results. In the next example a motive is printed twice: the

first time using exact mathematical spacing, and the second with
corrections. Which do you prefer?

@item Most of the beams extend too far off the staff. A beam that points
towards the center of the staff should have a length of about one
octave, but engravers shorten this when the beam points away from the
-staff in multi-voice music. The Finale beaming can be easily improved

with their Patterson Beams plug-in, but we elected to skip that step for
this example.
@item Finale doesn't adjust the positions of interlocking note heads,
lower voices exchange positions temporarily:
