The reason is that it is not easy for LyX to guess what follows. With a
character, a space needs to be inserted to terminate the command, but
with another command, this space must be omitted as it would result in
a real space. Braces work in both cases.
Note though that forthcoming LyX 2.4 will be smarter and output, with
your example:
{\Large\textsl{Here is some long long long and even longer text that
spans multiple lines of a paragraph in large size and slanted
style.}}{\Large\par}
There is also a reason for size switches coming before font style
markup. I can't remember the details now but this is the only order
that works in all cases.
HTH,
