Perhaps you could use an iab, if necessary, using e.g. ".." for ". ".
It still saves one keystroke, and does not make it impossible to enter
". ", for some other case. (OK, it does clobber a longhand ellipsis, so
maybe some other iab?)

:help joinspaces

It is the default, so you should see it, unless you have:

set nojoinspaces
