Correct. It is for the info output, not the TeX output, I guess.
>From the texinfo manual:
Ordinarily, TeX collapses multiple whitespace characters (space, tab,
and newline) into a single space. Info output, on the other hand,
preserves whitespace as you type it, except for changing a newline into
a space; this is why it is important to put two spaces at the end of
sentences in Texinfo documents.
