This reminds me of an old joke:
In rehearsal, the conductor stops the orchestra and says "Let's try it
again from bar 5." At the back of the viola section (I told you it was
a joke) a tentative hand goes up and a voice calls out "Please,
Maestro, these parts haven't got bar numbers."
Seriously, would anyone need to have every beat numbered? Surely
anybody can find the nth beat in a bar (unless you are using some truly
unorthodox time signature like 29/4).
