halacha - Mehudar K'tav: erasing touching letters before continuing


One of the hiddurim on my tefillin is that any letters which touch are erased and re-written before continuing. However, if I recall properly, the Kesset haSofer (Siman 7) requires that this be done lechatchila.


Considering this, why would this be considered a hiddur?
