I was wondering how that happened and figured it out. If you use the correct syntax and then format your document in VSCode using the Quarto extension, it adds a space. Since it's a single space in what looks like a Python comment, it's a bit hard to notice.
Steps to reproduce
Create a cell in a Quarto document that has an option comment:
use keybindings or right click to format document with -> choose Quarto:

click it, and a space appears!

### Expected behavior
I would not expect formatting the cell w/ the Quarto extension in VSCode to create syntax errors
### Actual behavior
formatting the cell w/ the Quarto extension in VSCode creates syntax errors
### Your environment
- IDE: VSCode w/ Quarto extension
- computer: Mac
