When used with parsimony, it can be helful, and not too bad for reading.
For instance, when there are loads of triplets like the following (I
faced that case a week ago, and was frustrated not being able to use q):

  \times 2/3 { <c e> <d f> qq }

Also, it would solve the chords only vs. all notes issue.  If it is
possible to refer to the two or three previous notes, then all chords and
simple notes (even rests: e.g. d4\rest) can be memorized.
