Why do modern pages leave so much white space?
When using modern pages, there is always about 25% of the screen width that is unused on the right side. Why won't any web parts extend further to the right and use that space?

This is not the issue. I have the same problem where on all of my modern pages there is a huge white blank column on the right side no matter what I select in the sections.

Yup - we get too when in full-screen. It must be by design as they disappear when the window is made smaller.

That said, there is a school of thought that says that narrow columns are easier to read - your eye doesn't scan as much. So I'm okay with the white band. I think this is why newspapers have narrow columns
