What I don't really understand why the stretchability of the StaffGrouper in
staves/scores contexts seems to have a completely different unit than the
stretchability defined in the \paper block. I would have expected that if I
set e.g. the stretchability between the staves of a StaffGroup to the same
value as the stretchability in system-system-spacing, then all staves on the
page would be equally spaced, whether they belong to the same or to different
systems... It seems that I have to use a value ~10 times as large for the
system-system-spacing stretchability...
If you set 'space and 'stretchability to the same value, then this should be true. Since your system-system-spacing 'space is smaller than your between-staff-spacing 'space, some of the stretchability value will go towards compensating for that difference.
