Actually, only the byte counter was updated: it current version the hidden page haeder size is not conted. Only the size of the visible/editable data is reported for the proofread-page content model pages. And this change is an edit as it creates a new revision to store the updated value. I do not think such database update can be made directly in code. There are also changes in other tables related to this edit.
And yes, this is a case similar to the trailing spaces/newlines stripping by a nul-edit.
To summarize it: this is a server behavior and Pywikibot can do nothing about as there is no difference between the old and new text in the page. What is missing to do in this task?
