The newline does no harm IMHO. In fact, the following holds:
block1: [hello there]
block2: [hello
there]
path1: to path! block1
path2: to path! block1
path3: to path! block2
equal? :path1 :path2 ; == true
equal? :path1 :path3 ; == true
same? :path1 :path2 ; == false
same? :path1 :path3 ; == false
same? :path3 :path2 ; == false
