Quoting Nicolas Sceaux <address@hidden>:

Why not defining e.g. a score-lines markup list command, which can be
used in situations where it is preferable to get one stencil per system.

Hmm, this is certainly an interesting idea; I am going to experiment with it to see where it leads us. My only possible objection could be, how useful it is to keep the current/existing behavior. My feeling is that it is not even very-well defined. As a matter of actual fact, that area of code is not even stable. The ability to do more one line of embedded score, is a recent addition; before Neil's little change, the score command simply selected 0-th element of the 'systems' vector and discarded everything else; Neil's code is a first approximation to something more useful. Keeping backward compatibility with an existing command makes perfect sense when the existing command is something proven, mature, and used by stuff built on top. Given the basic nature of the problems with the score command, I doubt this code has seen lots of use -- especially that it is very, very young code.
