TFA is a self-described "tutorial" that doesn't actually teach you how to make similar decisions in a different context. Having gone through this, I am no better equipped to select typefaces and configure spacing on my next side project than I was before I started. It's a complete and utter waste of time.
There's no "why", only some vague and useless "we can do better"-type hints without explaining why 26-px line height is better than 27.
