What's the point of picking the pitches apart into octave/note/alter and
then assembling them into a pitch again without change? Why not map
over the pitches directly in the first place?

Why use two? Just do (music-clone m 'origin location 'elements (map ...
And then you use either
\scalesAndTriads { c f bes ees aes des ges g d a e b fis }
or
\scalesAndTriads << c f bes ees aes des ges g d a e b fis >>
I'd not use \relative $music here: that looks like asking for trouble.
If people want \relative music, they should spell it out.
