Space character constraint to make </head> optional

HTML5 link indicates :

The end tag of the title element may be omitted if the head element is not followed by a white space or comment.

What does this "space" limit mean? I can only think something like

<title>My Page</title><p>Some stuff.</p>

and

<title>My Page</title>
<p>Some stuff.</p>

no, because implicit tags </head><body>will not surround the newline. But I feel like I'm not in the know. We give an illustrative example.

Thanks everyone!

It just means that since comment and space characters can appear inside the head element, they will not explicitly cover the head element.

, , () , , , </head>

.

</title> <!-- foo --> <body>

,

</title> <!-- foo --> </head><body>


</title></head> <!-- foo --> <body>

</head>
