I know only that this is true. I know not why. However, I do have a guess that I think is really close to correct.

Although these are single line breaks in the code, they are consecutive line breaks in the output. Since the includeonly tags and the categorization link display nothing, the "screen display parser" (or whatever it's called) receives, which it then displays exactly as you would expect.
