[Carl Morris:] | Ok, they are defining it as 160, but, just because that character is | blank, did the ISO standard really mean to call it a non breaking | space? Code point 10/00 (decimal 160) is called NO-BREAK SPACE in ISO 8859-1 (Latin Alphabet No. 1). It is defined as follows: 6.3.2 NO-BREAK SPACE (NBSP) A graphic character the visual representation of which consists of the absence of a graphic symbol, for use when a line break is to be prevented in the text as presented.
