I wrote "to define and *use* the some encodings".
If I understand correctly, "glyphshow" doesn't use any encodings but
"show" uses
the encoding.
What I wrote as "use" means using "show" instead of "glyphshow".

Again, when both `-dgs-never-embed-fonts` and `--bigpdfs`/`-b` are
used at the
same time, the intermediate PDFs become larger.
The disk size that `make doc` eats becomes increased.
If spliting -b, `-dgs-never-embed-fonts -duse-notation-font-encodings`
doesn't
embed full set TrueType fonts.
It embeds subset for TrueType fonts, as with only using
`-dgs-never-embed-fonts`.
The intermediate PDFs don't become larger.
The disk size that `make doc` eats doesn't become increased.
Nevertheless, the encodings for notation font is defined and "show" is
used.
In my humble opinion, this is better than `-dgs-never-embed-fonts -b`.
Of course, if we do not have to worry about the increase in disk size
required,
splitting -b is senseless as you wrote.
In my opinion, -b/--bigpdf should be simple to use for
lilypond-book-like applications. lilypond-book should likely call
lilypond using options leading to good results by default. For
generating our own documentation, I find 3-4GB of disk space excessive:
using special additional options might be suitable if that helps. If
the additional options work at least as well under all conceivable
circumstances, they should likely be the default.
-dxxx are options appealing more to specialists (well, there are things
like -dpreview not particularly specialist, but when in doubt, people
are more likely to see/consider "normal" options).
I'm not into the whole font mess enough to make a really qualified
suggestion here.
