Your latest set of revisions to the 1st message in this thread still has grossly inconsistent output. (Some lines have a trailing space; most do not. Some lines have two spaces as field separators; some have one space. The values in the Variables do not always match the corresponding field in your output file.
It looks like MadeInGermany's script captured most of the intent of your latest changes, but missed two points:
You added a new line at the start of the desired output.
Sometimes you want 5 digits after the decimal point in your output and sometimes you want 6.
The script below consistently only uses a single space as the field separator, does not add any trailing space, adds the new line you added as the first line of your output file, and adjusts the output to have the same number of digits after the decimal point as the longest input value for that line:
The output it saves in file2.txt is when your latest sample input is in file1.text is:
ok, this one is definitely too hard for my shell-script-skills.
Hopefully, there is somebody who can help me with this:

diff
DIFF(1) General Commands Manual DIFF(1)NAME
diff - print differences between two files
SYNOPSIS
diff [-c | -e | -C n] [-br]file1 file2
OPTIONS -C n Produce output that contains n lines of context
-b Ignore white space when comparing
-c Produce output that contains three lines of context
-e Produce an ed-script to convert file1 into file2
-r Apply diff recursively to files and directories of
EXAMPLES
diff file1 file2 # Print differences between 2 files
diff -C 0 file1 file2
# Same as above
diff -C 3 file1 file2
# Output three lines of context with every
diff -c file1 file2 # Same
diff /etc /dev # Compares recursively the directories /etc and /dev
diff passwd /etc # Compares ./passwd to /etc/passwd
DESCRIPTION
the same name, when file1 and file2 are both directories" difference encountered"
Diff compares two files and generates a list of lines telling how the two files differ. Lines may not be longer than 128 characters. If
the two arguments on the command line are both directories, diff recursively steps through all subdirectories comparing files of the same
name. If a file name is found only in one directory, a diagnostic message is written to stdout. A file that is of either block special,
character special or FIFO special type, cannot be compared to any other file. On the other hand, if there is one directory and one file
given on the command line, diff tries to compare the file with the same name as file in the directory directory.
