understand the logic there?

Because, in pretty much every score I know, dynamics text is always italic?
/DynamicText/ yes, but that is a different grob from TextScript, and semantically different. Personally, I fancy having a dedicated semantic level for something like ‘expressive mark’ (Ausdrucksbezeichnung), i.e. /dolce/ and /legato/ &c. So I defined an \ausdruck command (the German word was just the most concise version I could think of), which internally uses a markup command \expressive-mark, which currently does nothing but choose italic font-shape. But this is rather marginally related and nevertheless I agree that a Dynamics context shouldn’t make TextScript italic by default.

Yours, Simon
