Setting timeSignatureFraction directly is not expected to be tweakable,
and \overrideTimeSignatureSettings and its revert does not even have an
immediately visible effect.  They are not a concern.

I am not predominantly helping you here: that "why isn't there a warning
location" was just an incentive.  Regarding the "is this cost
reasonable" angle, I am more worried about the warning as such rather
than the TimeSignatureEvent.  But then the warning is your project and
you are free to pull the plug on it any time you want.  Being able to
tweak \time is independently useful, and it is half the job of getting
another @knownissue out of the manual (the other half being clefs if I
remember correctly).
