According to the documentation: 
https://cfengine.com/manuals/cf3-Reference#whitespace_policy-in-insert_lines

if ignore_imbedded is used then all embedded whitespaces are replaced with 
‘\s+’. 


So I think what it means is that *changes in existing whitespace* will be 
ignored, but not that creation of new whitespace (like you did in your case) 
will be ignored. By analogy, I think this option is equivalent to diff's -b, 
but not to -w.
