One possibility is that they might have "formatted" long commands,
e.g. using the backslash to write it on several lines, e.g.

  echo "some string" \
    "another string"

With HIST_REDUCE_BLANKS, this is simplified to

  echo "some string" "another string"

I doubt very much about it. With HIST_REDUCE_BLANKS, history handling
always seems immediate for me.
