Hi!

Well, I’m not so interested in what you think is a "point".

All I am asking for is good practice to override code in LilyPond in a way that 
doesn’t interfere with the codebase.

Is it possible to discuss that instead of reasons? I think all of us interested 
in using LilyPond will learn from that. And I also think there are many roads 
to good music.

By the way, I have learned how to do it "my way" now, and big thanks for all 
the replies.

Kind regards,  
/MO
