Yes, it's that way on C64 too - it didn't save any space.

People certainly did do a lot to save space through omitting spaces, using ";" to separate statements instead of new lines etc.



In Commodore BASIC you use ":" to separate statements. ";" is used at the end of a PRINT statement to keep it from appending a newline.
