Thanks for the question!
It is definitely a very interesting question to solve and do some brainstorming.
**************************************************
The intercellular spaces are less or almost absent, this is attributed towards a chemcial component (consisting lignin which is absence compelxure of a polymerised chain with a great funding of tensile strength making it highly compressible or does not break whilst stretching to a extreme level) which is disposed into the walls of those spaces which provide as a hard substance along with cement-like structure or equivalent, this make the cells around the tissue extremely hard and if the intercellular spaces were provided then there could be almost no significance of rigidity, support and guidance for the plants (light movements) including little to no strength and flexibility.
The mechanical support are given through dead cells which also makes it closely packed around the tissue with no spaces, this makes the tissue very hard and attached to the primary layers. They are separated by, instead of intercellular spaces, a middle lamella which is a connector between the two layers of sclerenchymatous tissue and the primary (epidermis or epidermal layer) formations, as, they contain lignin, pectin, proteins and polypeptides to hold them together within the two layers.
