Forgive me if I gave the impression that I was criticising anybody
or anything. It wasn't a technical comment; I was just making a
light-hearted observation regarding the roughly crochet-sized gaps
after the minims in the original photograph, which might be mimicked
by dropping in a line like
\set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 8)
No more than that.

Cheers,
David.
