Math works in either of 2 ways:
1) You write the formula code and it is rendered in the window or
2) You edit the formula directly in the window in a more visual manner, and
then it gets converted into code

When you do (2), it is natural that your code will change. I don't even see how
we could implement it in a way where all spaces, line breaks and different
choice for commands are kept. Although it could be technically possible, it
would be a huge development effort with very small benefit.

And also, NAB means that there's nothing breaking here, so I guess this is the
right choice for this ticket.
