Maybe, usually, a hypen is directly connected to a letter and never(?) connected to a space, so one can understand easily that a space followed by a hyphen is not a hyphen itself. On the contrary, the minus sign admits, as a binary operator, small spacing around it. If you use/know TeX you can guess what I mean. > I think that there shouldn't be a need to distinguish them: the I guess the upstream will do as you request if I understand correctly.
