 Replying to [comment:19 Kelderic]:
 > Why do we need to preserve white space at all? Why not just change the
 behavior to compress white space. Then inline-block has no oddities in
 behavior, and we don't have to add a new option.

 This was how the inconsistent markup was solved in #27762 but it broke
 some themes so was reverted in #35107. Thus the hunt for a solution that
 maintains backward compatibility, be in an argument, theme-support, or
 some other suggestion.
