> the first example splits it across multiple lines in a way which maximally preserves the other aspects of the notation.

Once you’re splitting it across lines I don’t think that is a desirable attribute. Better to use a format that suits multiple lines than attempt to match as closely as possible to a format intended for one line. Like those “flying cars” that try to look like the “canonical” car.

From my perspective this is a UI problem (though not a serious one).
