Extra spaces causing issue in "Show?" property of column

This is less of a question and more of a bug report.

A while back, I recommended using ChatGPT to prettify complex expressions:

ChatGPT prompt: Prettify this

I used it in that way today to make the expression in a "Show?" property easier to decipher with the following result:

As you can see, I got the green-circle check mark indicating that AppSheet had no trouble interpreting the expression.  But, nonetheless, it didn't work.  I went back to ChatGPT and told it to remove all of the extra spaces and it started working again.

So, now I know that I have to remove extra spaces if I want to be sure that an expression will work, at least in the "Show?" property.  But, of course, I'm not happy about having to do that.  Nor am I happy to find that the expression evaluator in AppSheet in unreliable. ๐Ÿ˜ž
