Please do. I listened and engaged with all the commenters on the GitLab
issue and all of the critics came down to “that’s not how we do things
around here” or concerns about exact control over whitespace, which is
totally irrelevant because it’s intended for embedding non-white space
sensitive text.

I literally did not find a single rational justification for why any
language should have not support them.
