I don't agree with this rationale. markup-system-spacing is chosen
because the markup can be either inside the score of which the system
is a part, or outside the score. Hence we need to have it be markup-system.
In contrast, the markup to which we are spacing with score-markup-spacing is
always *outside* the score to which we are referring. Thus, we can (and IMO
should) use score-* rather than system-*.
I think the asymmetry of these two situations calls for asymmetry in the
naming, rather than symmetry in the naming with the documentation making the
asymmetry clear.
But I won't be an obstructionist here. I've made my argument, and am
willing to accept whatever decisions are made on the list. And as the
person who is doing the work, Mark's opinions should carry more weight than
mine.
Thanks,
Carl
