Shouldn't this be "Okay if I like my spacebar quite a bit? "

https://github.com/exercism/problem-specifications/blob/8fb316e0dfd9ff8a563aac74583aec6ece9e5cb1/exercises/bob/canonical-data.json#L99 shows "Okay if like my spacebar quite a bit? ". The lack of a subject is strange, but the test is checking for the trailing whitespace so I guess it's okay.

The difference is that one is a correct English sentence with a subject, similar to the other tests, while the other is ungrammatical and looks weird. Was this intentional?

It looks like it was one of the original canonical test cases added back in 2015, and nobody fixed it in the intervening years.
