Inconsistency in this module

I see the only difference in this module, Python3 has wrapped parenthesizes (, ) for the print function. I noticed an inconsistency in lengths of that module in two different python versions.

import this; print(len(open(this.__file__).read()))
# 1003

len(open('/usr/lib/python2.7/this.py').read())
# 1002

These are the outputs in python3x version. If the only difference is print function with parenthesizes, why the output is not 1004 and it is 1003?

This isn't an inconsistency. The final line of the file in Python 2 is:

print "".join([d.get(c, c) for c in s])

The file in Python 3:

print("".join([d.get(c, c) for c in s]))

Note how the first ( replaces the space between the print and string. The ) is the only added character.
