In tag Sentence structures you don't have to pay a lot of attention
if you use conditional brackets -- the spacing pretty well takes care
of itself no matter what you do. But not so if you omit the brackets
- then you get exactly what you enter. I haven't checked that in
Source Templates, but I think you need to enter what you want output.
That means when you use conditional brackets you need to think about
the spacing both with and without that (and other) elements.
