I get 8 in GUI frames as well.
The display spec (space :width 7) means 7 times the width of the
default face's font. So if your default GUI font is monospaced, you
should get 8 in both GUI and text-mode frames.
So I'm unsure how come you get 2 in GUI mode. Maybe you've omitted
some important detail in the reproducer.
Thanks.
