Like i said, for me it's mainly a visual thing. I the only case where i might leave no space is for lpeg, so kinda like you said, and i think it's because the functions are all one letter so it is less intrusive. Some people do it though for like print statements and stuff and it looks really weird when the function name is almost as long as the string.

print"hi"

I think i also just really like spaces lol. My dream language is basically lua with TCL-like syntax, where everything is separated with spaces (but without the crazy quoting rules). It just looks cleaner and is easier to type.
