(The Wiktionary editors consider them synonyms.) Don't know. As a non-English speaker, I learned about the "teeny" word only by reading and translating LilyPond's doc. > Wouldn't it be better to reduce the number of preset sizes by nixing \teeny > too? Users who really need shorthand for \teeny, \hardlyLegible, or > \invisibleToTheNakedEye can define their own functions, after all. That would be a compatibility break. Unless we have a convert-rule that turns \teeny into \tiny \small but replacing one command with two commands is rarely the way to go...
