tempo in midi {}

Hi,

If I want to specify a tempo in my midi but not in my printed score, the docs tell me to do something like this:

\score {
  ...music...
  \midi {
    \context {
      \Score
      tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 72 4)
    }
  }
}

IMO this is an ugly construction for something basic like this.
But I am getting equally satisfying results when I do a much more intuitive:

\score {
  \tempo 4=72
  ...music..
  \midi {}
}

and I put the layout {} in a separate \score, without the \tempo indication.

What, if anything, is wrong with my method ? It works, I do it all the time.
