I believe this exhibits a bug:

\version "2.23.14"

{
   \new Staff { c'1 }
   \new Devnull { s1 }
}


I would have expected the staff to stop after one measure.

Does anyone see a reason for this behavior being correct,
or am I right that it is another bug similar to the “temporary
staff not ending” bug fixed by Dan in 74af697126?
It is documented behavior.  "Keeping contexts alive" starts with it:

[...]

You can either enclose your Staff in << ... >> or you can end its visual
impact using \stopStaff .



Thanks, that is helpful. I don't fully understand the quoted
documentation passage to be honest, but at least I know how to
deal with it.
