Description
```m2
i1 : R = kk[x,y];
i2 : net ideal x
o2 = ideal x
i3 : net ideal(x+y)
o3 = ideal(x + y)
```
Now notice the extra space before the parentheses:
```
i4 : net ideal(x+y,x-y)
o4 = ideal (x + y, x - y)
i5 : net ideal(x,y)
o5 = ideal (x, y)
```
@pzinn do you have a guess of what's causing this?

Research direction
Start by running the `net ideal(x+y,x-y)` and `net ideal(x,y)` examples from the issue and compare their printed output with the cases that do not show the extra space. Trace the expression-printing path responsible for sequence output, then add or update a regression test showing that `ideal(...)` is printed without the unwanted space.
