I like this example, Koen. If one glances at it, it's confusing, but if one reads it, then the spaces (and their positions) suddenly take on a different "look" because you can see which ones are meaningful from the context.
Note how there's a tiny dot bewteen ...sem and veniente'. Maybe the original scribe or someone else found it confusing and added the dot to make the break more clear.
