So, it's obviously fine to two-space if you're using a typewriter.
It's therefor also fine if you're writing in a monospace/fixed-width font.
But don't do it with proportional width fonts! They are designed with various hints in place to render appropriately as one should typeset them, adjusting spacing between various letters, and of course rendering periods and decimal points correctly, contextually!
HTML will also ignore extra spaces, accordingly. Word processors will either highlight consecutive spaces as a typo or even auto-correct as you type. So I guess not much worry here if it's a habit.
