Comment #2 on issue 1364 by [email protected]: Enhancement:
Dynamics should be printed *above* vocal staves

A slightly more definitive source:

Page 9 of the pdf:
Placement of Dynamics
…
c) In vocal and choral music, dynamics are placed above the staff to be
separated from the text.
Personally, I don't mind having to move the dynamics up manually, but it
would be nice if lilypond could somehow see if a Voice context has a Lyrics
associated with it, and automatically place dynamics above the staff if so.
With the ability to override this behavior, should I so desire.
