I think the point is that some properties either do not have values at
all, or those values are determined during compilation, depending on
other circumstances.
and the default values of some of those properties are not easily
determinable by the [beginning?] user.
Three examples which I just pulled at total random are
Beam.beam-thickness (via beam-interface)
Beam thickness is certainly a multiple of staff line thickness, so its
value can’t be told in general.
NoteHead.break-visibility (via item-interface)
This is clearly a property which is unset, and remains unset, and for
good reasons: Why would the visibility of a NoteHead depend on line
breaks? In fact, tests show that a NoteHead is always considered to be
‘unbroken’ (= mid-line), so \override NoteHead.break-visibility = ##(#t
#f #t) will make all NoteHeads invisible, and the first and third values
in the vector don’t matter at all.
KeyCancellation.font-size (via font-interface)
It turns out that this can’t be overridden at all.
I hope this helps enlighten matters.
Best, Simon
