Thanks @mbgower, I forwarded your comment to the Auto-WCAG GitHub (which will soon move to become ACT Rules CG!).
I have tested many websites with the full inline spacing and have encountered no failures. The failures I did encounter were vertical. The line spacing causes the captions (I don't know if actual figcaption elements are used) to overflow in galleries. Movement to grid structures would be one way to fix this problem. Using tables without the flexibility to grow down truncates captions. This seems related to C4

Is there any action for AGWG here?
This can be closed from ACT TF perspective.
@nitedog if it can be closed, could you please indicate what action was taken, or what you rationale was for dismissing C36, C35 (and per Wayne's comment, potentially C4) as potential checks in Auto-WCAG?
@WilcoFiers can confirm. As far as I understand, this suggestion was brought to the ACT-R CG (formerly Auto-WCAG) but after one year there was still no one available to write rules and promote implementations for this. The suggestion itself was not dismissed, and anyone is welcome to attempt such rules.
There is an ACT rule for text spacing but it only checks with inline styles are used with important to control text spacing -- so it's very limited and not very likely to occur in my opinion. I believe a pass rule exists for when text spacing is set to the specified levels by default - which indicates success - but again is likely to not occur.
@mraccess77 ACT rules development relies on people willing to take on the work. Nobody had stepped up to write rules according to these proposals. Would be delighted if you or someone else in your organization may be available and interested?

@nitedog , reviewing these two techniques could these statements and others potentially be incorporated into some Auto-wcag rules? Not sure if you are creating PVs or not...
