Yes.  The reason is not so silly, if you know how it works.

After encountering a hash (#) in the input, LilyPond hands the input
stream to GUILE, to parse one scheme expression.

In Scheme, identifiers can consist of (almost) any character.

In this case, the expression that is parsed is the name of an
identifier, called "line-count=".  Then, LilyPond after receiving an
identifier, wants an equal sign.
