I feel that ascribing it all to esthetic choice is the least reasonable option. It leaves too much potential insight on the the table.

In my view, the space between words works to some extent like a glyph. The sequence of glyphs is highly predictable, and similarly, it is predictable where a space can appear. In essence, the space behaves no differently from the glyphs themselves.
