that's what I found as text about this issue:

"if I extend the staff by a line, pitched rests appear shifted by half a
line
(thus half rests look like whole rests and vice versa).
this patch is a quick fix for that."

does this not happen always, also for "normal" (5-lined) staves?

outside a staff it looks correct but inside the staff it seems more
critical!

the way LilyPond functions - AFAICS - you can override the rest position
within a staff to any (integer) value, but this offends basic rules of rest
notation like

- the hook of an eighth rest should be in the space between two staff lines
- half rests/full rests should lie/hang on staff lines

not sure these rules are relevant or if there are more …
