I like 2 spaces after a period at the end of a sentence.  But what I
like to look at and what I think might be appropriate for HTML don't
always agree.  Indeed putting code into Lynx to try to render two spaces
at the end of a sentence seems like folly.

A person has the option of using <pre> to do things like that.  There
is also the entity &emsp; for forcing two spaces (point size of current
font).  (I don't think Lynx implements the entity &emsp;, but someone
who were desperate could do the hack for his/her personal Lynx.)
