You mentioned:
"LilyPond doesn't require all the barlines to align in order to be able
to break a line, it only requires an arbitrary *moment* to align. If you
have such a moment you can break lines, and the manual tells you how to

so far indicated that you may not always have really read
A meter of 7/sqr(71) simply means that that there are 7 eighth notes each of
which has duration of square root of 71 = 1/8.426149 of a whole note,
whereas a standard eighth note has duration of 1/8 of a whole note.
Therefore each eighth note in 7/sqr(71) meter has a duration of 8.426149/8 =
