WTM?! It's like a <div> in HTML. It doesn't do anything in
itself.
\tag #'score \blah blah
doesn't force you to think about presentation in a bad way; it
just means that you only want to display something in a score. Or
maybe in everything apart from the score. I can't remember how
the command works.

You want a way of indicating that something is only to be used for
particular instruments/situations, without using a command that's
designed to be used for particular instrument/situations?
