As discussed in

  https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/merge_requests/1515#note_1045453533

I think it makes sense to have time signatures if you transcribe
polyphonic music that uses Gregorian chant notation, like pieces from
the Notre Dame School period (12th to 13th century).  However, this is
no longer 'classical' Gregorian chant, so maybe the default should be
to not show a time signature.

Are there any experts who could shed more light on this topic?

Maybe we should ask on the 'lilypond-user' list, too.
