Those invisible spaces get wiped by the first sanitizer in any normal ide. Worse it'll instantly break parsing for configs like yaml where spaces are critical for structure

If it's that simple and obvious, you'll have 10 "Remove Claude Watermark" web-apps by the end of Day 1. Most of them coded by Claude.
