But the composer wasn't 'lazy' in this case - the MusicXML shows that
ties were entered for ties, not slurs, yet they are typeset as if they
were slurs. (That is, Sibelius exported to MusicXML making the
distinction between the slurs and the ties correctly, so they must have
been entered correctly, but its typesetting is wrong).
