Naw, it's not uncommon, especially when writing on mobile. On small screens or windows, a long sentence can be many lines and look like a paragraph if you're not really thinking about it and putting in line breaks based on looks and vibes.

Years ago I made a whole silly poem about my mortification upon discovering I had done this in a work email, having read it in a much larger window than the one I composed it in.
