Quite the opposite, limiting myself to ~80 characters per line improved the readability of my code. Shorter lines mean less complexity per line and more labelled values, which then again reduces the need for comments.
Expanding to 120 character lines means I can only have one column of code on my laptop screen at the same time and only if I maximise the window. It also means I can't have 3 columns on my desktop screen. And no, horizontal scrolling or line wrapping is not an option, it's a nightmare.
