Subject: Re: turning a blind eye to dotted note
The point in the example is, that there is one 16th to much in the bar,
not one missing. If I count, I get 17/16 in the bar! And I wonder that
lilypond is seting automatically a barline after that 17/16 without
complaining? In my understanding that is wrong!
As was explained, it's actually putting a part of the note after the barline
and leaving space for it. See attached image if the dotted note is
"corrected".
What I would do or awaiting lilypond to do is splitting up that last 8th
note into 2 16th note and connect it with a tie! Than this is a correct
notation. The "math", 16/16 in one bar with 4/4 is right.

As was explained, this is what the completion_notes_engraver does do.
