<p>If that design for the trailing spaces is indented then I disagree with that design choice.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>In a normal string literal it’s crystal clear that it contains multiple space characters at the end, because it’s visible to the reader of that code. As shown below, if Xcode wouldn’t help here, the end result might contain spaces which could be caused by an accident and are not clear to the reader at all.</p></li>
<li><p>I suggest to align this behavior with normal string literals by stripping all space characters at the end of each line, just like Xcode does, unless they are explicitly annotated by a backslash, which would be clear to the reader of the code.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>That said, this:</p>
<pre><code class="swift">let s0 = "abc\n"
let s1 = """↵
abc···↵
"""
let s2 = """↵
abc···\↵
"""
let s3 = """↵

"""
s0 == s1 // => true
s0 == s2 // => false
s2 == "abc···" // => true
s3 == "abc···\n" // => true
