Yes, I didn't mean that LP would change it's behaviour. It's just that
sometimes you have to override the stems to make them point the
"wrong" way. So the printed copy might have stems pointing up in a
section of a part that you happen to know is called with \voiceDown.
Finding an example is not easy as I try to avoid setting keyboard
music. Looking at real printed scores, on a tiny, trivial scale
(one note), the tied d'' would (in a future version) be \voiceDown,
but the stem is overridden to Up. I would find thinking of these
three parts as Top Low Bottom easier than Top Up Bottom, were this
example on a much larger scale. It's setting these "weaving" parts
that I hate.
Top/High/Low/Bottom only carry "altitude" information, whereas
Up/Down can have other relevant meanings overloaded onto them.
That's all I meant.
