IMHO more whitespace makes code more readable and less ambiguous.

Especially if that quote were a single-quote, is it a transpose
operator on x or the start of a string? Spaces separating tokens makes
for more readable and understandable code. Especially with the amount
of punctuation in your code sample.

Also why was a space required *before* the variable and a preceding
quoted string, but not after? Now it's consistent.

Those are the main reasons it looks like an improvement to me.
