HTML editor.value() and editor.body.innerHTML return different values

Editor

Hello,

When focused in the HTML editor, I set the default font and font size and add a p tag to the outermost.
Then when I try to get the editor value with editor.value() it automatically gets a space ' ' is being added, but when I read it with editor.body.innerHTML there is no space.
This does not allow you to check whether the space was added by the user.

If from now on I get the editor value with editor.body.innerHTML, could problems occur?
Or what can I do so editor.value() doesn't automatically add spaces?

Thanks

<textarea id="editor"></textarea>
<script>
$("#editor").kendoEditor({ tools: [
    "bold", "italic", "underline", "fontName", "fontSize"
  ]});

var editor = $("#editor").data("kendoEditor");

$(editor.body).focus(function (e) {
    editor.exec("fontName", { value: "Tahoma" });
    editor.exec("fontSize", { value: "10pt" });
    var content = editor.value();
    
    if (content.indexOf('<p') !== 0)
        editor.value('<p>'+ content +'</p>');

    console.log(editor.value());
    console.log(editor.body.innerHTML);
});

</script>

Result:
editor.value():  
editor.body.innerHTML:
