It's silly that to this day so many CF tags and calls themselves spit out whitespace that you as a coder have to avoid. Especially when whitespace is so troublesome in certain cases not to mention costly in terms of bandwidth and speed. I totally agree re consistency.

It's a matter of wanting to be consistent.

Instead place the cfoutput tags within the method call itself. Yup! whenever you wrap a method/function call with cfoutput tags it’ll spit out whitespace.
