Are you sure? Are you using ragged-right = ##f to confirm/test?

For example, the code

%%%  SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.25.11"
\language "english"

\layout {
  indent = 0
  line-width = 4\in
  ragged-right = ##f
  \context {
    \Score
    \remove "Bar_number_engraver"
  }
  \context {
    \ChordNames
    \consists "Bar_engraver"
    \override BarLine.bar-extent = #'(-2 . 2)
  }
}

theChords = \chordmode {
  ef4 ef2:maj7 ef4:7 \break
  ef2 ef4:maj7 ef4:7
}

\new ChordNames \theChords
%%%  SNIPPET ENDS

gives me the output

and clearly there’s a difference in the spacing.

Cheers,
Kieren.
