Does this cause any problems with DF?

No, but it's a problem itself, and i couldn't think of anywhere else to put it.

Why is it a problem? It may be a stylistic preference, but I'm not aware of any functional issues it causes in the context of DF.

Trailing spaces take up a little bit of space despite contributing nothing. In addition, they can cause a tiny bit of annoyance when updating the file.

This causes no problems in DF itself. I'm aware that this is a really small issue—that's precisely why i marked it as low-priority and text-severity.

Neither of those things have a meaningful impact on DF players, so I don't think this is something Toady needs to address.
