That is a better way to write it, because the position of the turn adjusts
if the line is tight or loose.  If you use parallel music then the c2
can be full-length, which might be important for someone depending on midi.

The documentation example should probably show a general solution,
including accidentals that behave under transposition, and how to get
the usual note-space for the turn. That makes the example complicated,
but if it is easy for users to remove any unnecessary parts, extra detail
does little harm.

I added an alternative snippet at
