More FAQs in Why does one word not always equal one token?
Not always. A long but common vocabulary item may be one token, while a short unusual string can require several pieces under the same tokenizer.
Removing spaces can damage meaning or code and may not reduce the count predictably. Measure the result with the matching tokenizer before making formatting changes.
