Heikki's draft commit message addresses that point:

    The old implementation accepted trailing whitespace, but that seemed
    unnecessary. Firstly, its sibling function for parsing decimals,
    strtodouble(), does not accept trailing whitespace. Secondly, none of
    the callers can pass a string with trailing whitespace to it.

I didn't try to verify the latter assertion, but if it's true,
we don't need the extra complication.
