But *4 is _logical_. You can guess what it does without looking it up
in the manual.
No. Since it looks like a multiplication, it treats the number, not
the notes (at least for me). So < c e g>4*4 could be interpreted as
< c e g >16, which is not what we want.
In fact, I was quite surprised at what <c e g>4*4 does currently. Makes
no sense to me. Can't imagine what it would be good for.
The * operator scales the length of a note without changing its
apperarance, see:

I used it for displaying a hihat played shuffled to synchronize the two
hihat beats with note 1 and 3
of a snare triplet, for example. Ok, I think it is used seldom in
(more-or-less) normal scores,
but it isn't useless.
