Hi David, Thank you for the swift and precise response. That was exactly it. When I am in search of new functionality, I usually search this page for keywords: https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/internals/scheme-functions That was how I found the ly:make-score. Is there some way of deducing if a function is intended to be called directly or is only an internal utility function?

That's just a detail.
