I think you know that the fix for issue 3304 resolves the inconsistency in  
the example you show. So don't work too hard to collect examples until 3304  
is finished (and remember to post .ly rather than images)

The underlying cause for the spacing inconsistency will remain after issue  
3304 is done.  There are some heuristic quirks in the function  
Springs::merge_springs() :

// Create two springs using  Spring::Spring (natural_length, minimum_length)
a = Spring(1.5, 1.0); // rather flexible spring of length 1.5
b = Spring(0.5, 0.5); // incompressible spring of length 0.5

c = merge_springs(a, b); // currently gives an incompressible spring of  
length 1.3

We might expect two springs, each with can compress to length 1.0 or  
shorter, to merge into a spring that is compressible down to 1.0
Simplifying spings.cc might be rewarding.  Check the history first, to see  
why the 0.3 was added.
