Hi Ben,
your approach does work. It can be simplified quite a bit, mainly by
using shortInstrumentName and \RemoveAllEmptyStaves, and not using
keepAliveInterfaces, which you don’t even need. See ben-divisi.ly.

I think it’s more ‘messy’ and complicated creating them on the fly. I’d
much rather keep one of them filled with music throughout, have the
others quote that, and make full use of the keepAliveInterfaces
approach. In all but the most complicated cases one won’t really need
meddling with instrumentNames, which also removes the need to meddle
with manual breaks. But of course that’s also possible—see
demo-string-divisi.ly.
Best, Simon
