Hi Carl,
Thanks for weighing in!

s/eighth/sixteenth/ *facepalm*
3/16 + 2/16 != 2/16 + 3/16 ;)0
I get that. How would that show up in the music? I guess in beam subdivision?

I fear you’re correct… but I do love that I’m not the only one that hasn’t
totally given up the dream.
Well, it's not really a dream of mine -- I'm really a pedestrian musician. No
modern complexity stuff for me. But I also *love* the fact that in nearly
every case, LilyPond tries to capture the semantics, not just the display.
That's one of LilyPond's strengths. And it wasn't until I saw all this
discussion happening that I recognized the semantic disconnect here.
Thanks,
Carl
