Because "+" tries to add fontification.

Yes, see `org-emphasis-regexp-components'.

Because the space isn't allowed within +...+ fontified constructs.

(setq org-fontify-emphasized-text nil)

Mhh.. yes, I'll perhaps update the manual, or just add a Worg 
FAQ for this.

We try to not make them agressive.  But the text you quoted above
looks like an example that could be in fixed-with block like this :

:  bar (+.2 to .5)
:  baz (+.2 to .5)

:  bar (+.2 to .5)
:  baz  +.2 to .5)

or in another block where *...* constructs are not fontified.

Thanks,
