I'm having trouble eliminating vertical space above an Ossia

\repeat unfold 4 {  c4 b d c}

       \magnifyStaff #2/3
       firstClef = ##f
      \override VerticalAxisGroup #'default-staff-staff-spacing = #'(
(basic-distance . 0)
(minimum-distance . 0)
(padding . 1.5)
(stretchability . 90) )
     }
     { e4 d f e }
   >>
\break
\repeat unfold 4 {  c4 b d c}
   c4 b c2
}

The vertical distance above the ossia I could not reduce no matter how
much I tweaked the numbers in the override, and so the distance
between the two lines with ossia in the middle is different from the
rest. I also tried "staff-staff-spacing" instead of
"default-staff-staff-spacing" but there is no change.

Is it possible to reduce the vertical distance above the ossia? I
gave up and ended up doing the ossia with music included in a markup,
for the markup I know how to tweak all vertical distances.

You could always try to approach from the paper block? :) Does that work for
your needs?
[snippet erased]

\paper {
   system-system-spacing =
     #'((basic-distance . 10)
        (minimum-distance . 1)
        (padding . 1)
        (stretchability . 6))
}

The problem is that the vertical distance between line 1 and 2 is larger than
between lines 2 and 3. I would like it to be equal for all lines. I
can achieve  this with the "markup" below, but not with the way the
manual suggests to do "ossia":

\version "2.19.32"


\new Staff = "main" \relative {
\repeat unfold 4 {  c''4 b d c} \break
c4 b d c c^\markup {
     \score {
     \new Staff \with {
       \remove "Time_signature_engraver"
       alignAboveContext = #"main"
       \magnifyStaff #2/3
       firstClef = ##f
     }
\relative c'' { e4 d f e \bar "|"}
   \layout { }
  }
}
\repeat unfold 2 {  c4 b d c} \break
\repeat unfold 4 {  c4 b d c} \break
\repeat unfold 4 {  c4 b d c} \break
   c4 b c2
}



I'm confused...in that case, along with my paper block suggestion, couldn't you just tweak the

  \override VerticalAxisGroup #'default-staff-staff-spacing = #'(
(basic-distance . 6)
(minimum-distance . 0)
(padding . 1.5)
(stretchability . 90) )

to get the general spacing you wish? Both blocks together should be what you want. No?
