I'd rather say they do. One is like a space, two or more end a paragraph
and start a new one. If newlines are stripped away, the meaning of the
TeX code can change, in some cases dramatically (e.g. if comments are
written to the TeX code).
Also, I don't understand why the option is called strip.white, at least
for results=tex. The docs say that "blank lines at the beginning and end
of output are removed", but the observed behavior is to remove the
terminating carriage return of the output.
