Are standards for official parts too strict?

Actually, I always found myself quite disappointed when Chris removed the tabular formatting
from my submits.
I do not really see Chris' point of "not changing history", as inserting spaces there really is not something
carrying semantics.

My request is to allow that tabular formatting,
to extend the spec so arbitrary spaces may follow the ],
and ask Chris to not remove tabular !HISTORY submittals formatting, pleeeeeze...
