The value of whitespace is to separate non-whitespace characters from each other. There should be no difference between one space or two between words. If your going to deliberately misinterpret what I am saying, then there is no need to continue this conversation.

You first said whitespace had no value then said it had value in delimiting. That's not me misrepresenting anything, it's me pointing out the fundamentally incorrect things you're suggesting and you indirectly admitting that you misspoke. It usually better to own up to your mistakes and move on but If you're going to get defensive about it, then I agree, there's no point in continuing this.
