RE: About the construction of lines in the MS - ReneZ - 17-04-2026
I fully share the notion that parsing that relies on word spaces may be wrong.
This is a very complicated topic. There are arguments that would suggest that word spaces are significant, for example the fact that label words also appear as stand-alone words in the text. This argument (and others) may not be valid. They may have several alternative explanations.
More importantly, even if word spaces are largely significant, I am not at all convinced that the bits that are contained between the spaces are actually words. Even in the scenario that there is a meaningful text.
