Well, the string is converted. Try
\markup { "~" }
Note that \markup "~" again is identical to "~", but \markup { ... } is
a form of \markup <markup-list> and is converted to \markup \line
<markup-list>. That is sufficiently complex to stop the lyric
typesetter from looking into it.
Less than fabulous, yes.
