The 'Sibelius Academy' mention is probably the clue there.  I think the
people involved were interested in developing a proprietary commercial
project, which is kind of difficult with a Lilypond derivative.

I think that one can probably do with Lilypond anything that this
package does, it's just that some of it will require more custom scheme
code than other stuff.  I know that there have been some pretty
spectacular things done by some clever members of this list (see the
discussion some weeks back comparing Lilypond with SCORE).
