Note that it actually is a feature of LilyPond to remove the hyphen
if the spacing is too tight. Of course the example of hyphens in the
tutorial should show the hyphens. On the other hand, Section
"7.3.3 Hyphens and Extenders" already explain that hyphens will
be removed when the spacing is tight and also points to the relevant
properties to play with if you don't want it to happen.

I guess the simpler solution would be to replace "twinkle, twinkle" with { a -- le -- gri -- a }, which means happiness, in the section 2.13. Then later in Vocal Music section, users find out that hyphens are suppressed in some situations. For introduction, that working example is enough. Please, Graham, consider that change, if you will.
