Shouldn’t these three have the same whitespace rules, with the
same phrasing?
Here’s my argument for “mandatory whitespace for all” ([\t ]+):

Fwiw, i support this. Lately i've been spending a lot of time and energy on format conversions, and the more consistent the syntax, the easier it is to parse, and the less i have to rely on kludgy heuristics.
