, I assume? You only want to display the metronome mark in this staff, right?

That's because \tempo is a score-wide thing; moving the engraver only
changes the output, not the general music definition.

You might prefer to use a StaffGroup and add the tempo engraver to
that, instead of fiddling with individual staves. That's certainly
what I'd do in a full orchestra score, if you want to display the
tempo above the woodwinds, brass, and strings.
