Actually, there is one really huge difference: NR B.6 shows the glyph names, 
while NR B.10 shows the actual lilypond commands to bet the corresponding 
articulation!

So, from the feta chart alone, you only see that you can get e.g. nice 
espressivo, but you don't see how to obtain it in your lilypond code.
B.6 shows "scripts.espr", while the actual lilypond command is \espressivo...

Similarly, up/down versions are shown as two glyphs in B.6, while they are 
just one lilypond command that automatically selects the correct glyph.

Thus, I don't think that B.10 can be removed.

Cheers,
Reinhold
