Hi David,

It’s not *quite* that simple, I think…
Using
\paper {
ragged-right = ##t
indent = 0
system-system-spacing.padding = 2
bottom-margin = 1\in
}
we see that most of the margin is kept, but there are still system-system
collisions (cf. m 120). So systems are placed lower, yes, but with some
awareness.

Maybe if you save the original Y-position, and then explicitly “reset” it
afterwards, it will eliminate this problem? Still doesn’t explain what’s
actually going on — which would be nice to know — but might fix this function.
Cheers,
