If you have a look at the attached .ly file you'll see that he did it.

Actually I do not see anything wrong in Nick's input.
The output is not what is expected with a "correct" input.  I would
tend to consider it as a bug.  Not related to \RemoveEmptyStaves though,
but because it seems a StaffGroup cannot handle a "Mark_engraver"
(or the bug is in "Staff_collecting_engraver" also).

That's tricky.
The idea to add "Mark_engraver" to the StaffGroup is more logical and
should work, IMHO.
