Max, thanks for the background information.
For your info:
1. I also need to remove \relax in the LaTeX export using Gentoo
texlive-2022 to compile.
2. On my systems ws-butler removes the trailing whitespace.
3. I edited your example with nano to add the trailing space after
\relax, but it still does not compile.
