Incorrect example provided for Basic JavaScript: Word Blanks?

Here is what is provided as an example in the Basic JavaScript: Word Blanks tutorial:

var sentence = "It was really" + "hot" + ", and we" + "laughed" + "ourselves" + "silly.";

This concatenation does not appear to accurately account for the spaces needed between words. Shouldn’t it be something like this?

var sentence = "It was really " + "hot" + ", and we " + "laughed" + " ourselves " + "silly.";
