Then make sure to make the number of weekday columns configurable, for when we (finally) narrow down the week to 3 days (yes, I do remember the 1970s); but allow for up to 10 days, for when we decimalise the calendar.

that right there. leave it up to the user, but default to centering.
Better yet, add some data collection to see what users actually like. I've been a long proponent for this, as I think the vast majority of features are rarely used. I'm thinking Word, Excel, most of the Windows desktop, applications and systems I've written, etc.

Center of course for the obvious logical reason previously stated.
Also :
Vertical line separators.
Each column in alternating colors.
Upon hover icons fly around depending on column. to wit exempli gratia:
Monday flying piggies
Tuesday flying kittens
Wednesday flying puppies
Thursday flying butterflies
Friday flying froggies
Of course the library of flying icons should be user extensible.
Distinct perhaps random fonts is user optional.

I've been thinking about this and I'd categorically tell anyone asking about justifying text that would ultimately be copied and pasted, left justify it. Because of the use but also because of the westwardness of things in general.
On a lighter note:
A Zoo visiter walks past the front gate of Jack Hanna's Imperial Animal Venue and approaching the docent at the first water attraction he comes across, gazing with astonishment at the creature wallowing in the shallows below the fence, says to him "That is the strangest reptile I've ever seen" to which the docent points to the shingle hanging above and says "That's the world's meanest orneriest lizard and it's called a Crockagator, hence the sign".
The visitor reads the title of the sign and steps a couple feet closer to read the finer print beneath the bold letters and says out loud "Two-headed beast: one end the mouth of an alligator, on the other end the mouth of crocadile". He kinda scratches his head for a moment and thinks to himself then says to the docent "I see ... two heads, must be very hard to feed and eats a lot to boot. But what makes him so beastly"?
To which the docent replies: "If you had a mouth on one end of you and another mouth on the other end of you, you'd be mighty beastly too.

If you can't find time to do it right the first time, how are you going to find time to do it again?

I recently purchased a low end laptop for testing software. I find that the Windows 11 it came with is pretty snappy.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

win 11 has been good to me, whether laptop or desktop. latest version is very solid so far.
edge is just still an option as far as I am concerned. but decent.

I don't like some of the UI changes in Win11 (I didn't like some of the changes in Win10, either), but other than that it seems pretty solid. It runs nicely even on an i7-2670QM CPU (the oldest I have).
The major issue,, as far as I'm concerned, is TPM - will a future version refuse to run without it? I'm not really worried about it not running on 15-year-old CPUs; that is prehistoric in CPU terms.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
