Sorry, I was not clear, I did not mean it was "random".

I meant that 'ls "foo "' complained the directory was not found if the
space was included, while "find" did happily accept "foo", "foo ",
"foo " as argument meaning the same thing, still including the extra
spaces in the output. This is shown in the examples I included.

So there are some problem with "space at the end of directory/file
part" going on effecting different commands differently,
