What are your opinions on the LB Text battle formatting?

When we created the original system, the intent was for each line of text to represent a break in the rhyme, the same way lyrics are formatted on lyric websites:

Code:

At a thousand degree Celsius I make MCs melt
Fuck my record label I appear courtesy of myself
Let me explain how I maintain thresholds to pain
I walk across the Sun barefoot looking for shade

How the system is being used today is by filling the text box until the system registers a line break (which is set at a specific number of characters), and continuing to fill the text box. I don't think there is anything wrong with this, but I think it makes text battles hard to read because it is not clear where the lines connect and rhyme.

I think a possible solution is to let you write a line as long as you want, but you have to press enter to go to the next line (and change the way the system registers a new line). Then we can format and display the text in an easier format like lyric sites.

Open to ideas and curious if other people think the text battles are hard to read?
