It totally isn't, neither in concept nor in execution. In my book, it
would benefit from a layer trying to abstract content and design in a
manner like LaTeX does, but LilyPond in common use does not have any
such layer or architecture as it stands. It's essentially employed like
plain TeX, explicitly cranking out stuff with thin individual
user-convenience layers on top. We don't have the equivalence of
document classes, and no coherent system of what amounts to LaTeX's
package system.
