I would love to see your "valid reasons" and "evidence" that single spacing is objectively superior to double spacing ... in non-monospace fonts.
Meanwhile, I don't think the English language should change its punctuation standards depending on typeface.
As for "having eliminated the need", I'd like to know the reason you say they needed a double space (fine, an "em space" that just so happened to be "double" the "space" of a word space) BEFORE MONOSPACE FONTS EXISTED* -- the reason you say doesn't exist anymore.
[* edit: Maybe. rocketpig informs me that, contrary to Wikipedia, monospace fonts predate the typewriter.]

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
