Why would legal writing be different from all other writing on Earth? Pull literally any book off your shelf (even legal ones!) and see for yourself: there is one space after the periods. Period! https://slate.com/technology/2011/01/two-spaces-after-a-period-why-you-should-never-ever-do-it.html …https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1248817218600808450 …
Because you finish a legal brief & turn it in to be read as prepared. You don't hand it over to a printing press.

OK, but the question remains why legal writing should be different from all other writing on Earth. I used to be a two spaces guy. Then I read the Slate piece I linked in my last tweet. Then I started pulling books off shelves. Including legal style manuals! Try it. You'll see.

Books are, as I said, printed differently.
