Because spaces, tabs, CR and LF are invisible too yet perfectly normal to find within code. You could very easily implement a decode() function that uses only those characters.

But to get any meaningful result, you'd need to insert them in unusual ways or amounts, likely breaking formatting rules. Trailing whitespace or excessive line breaks should be caught by linting tools and/or code review.
