Default collapses white space between non-whitespace chars but
keeps at least one. Except at the beginning and end of text where
it eliminates all whitespace.

Because this is text and in text you almost never want to really
ignore all spaces.

There are alternate ways to format your SVG that won't
have this problem (For what it's worth HTML has the same problem):
<text style="font-size:14px;text-anchor:end;fill:black;fill-opacity:1"
><tspan x="100" y="15">*</tspan
><tspan x="100" y="30">1</tspan
><tspan x="100" y="45">1</tspan
></text>
