[Feature request] Extend the max-width of the Hero Component's H1
This came up in a Slack thread.
Problem
The current max-width set on the Hero Component's H1 (for Large - Desktop) sometimes causes multiple line breaks and does not accommodate long titles well. Since we tend to have very long headlines with some longer words thrown in the mix, @samoshin suggested extending the max-width.
Suggested solution
Extend the max-width of the F2 Hero Headline to 9 col of 12. @nsolerieu suggested this, and I also tested multiple widths and landed on the same conclusion.
Urgency
Not too urgent — by mid-July or the end of July would be ideal.

Update: Waiting on Site Design FR (@natalie-iv) to investigate character count based sizing.
@rezrah
60 characters max seems to be the most common recommendation (See here NN Group, Here Conductor )
@rezrah here is a consolidated suggestion
- Extend the length of the large hero component to 9 columns: 924px
- Set the length of description text to 6 columns: 600px
Currently this Large hero is set at 639px which is not tied to the grid and is too narrow for long titles. This new suggestion will allow most titles to fit on 2 lines and accommodate the longer technical terms found on some of our feature pages.
