Good that you put that workaround in quotes... This would get written
to the toc as well.

An alternative could be to do something like this:

\makeatletter
\renewcommand*\@seccntformat[1]{%
  \@ifundefined{@seccntformat#1}%
  {\@nameuse{the#1}\quad}% <- no special form exists
  {\@nameuse{@seccntformat#1}}%
}
\newcommand*\@seccntformatsection{\thesection\hspace{2em}}
\makeatother
