The CG

states:

    All engravers should have double-quotes around them:

        \consists "Spans_arpeggio_engraver"

    LilyPond does not strictly require this, but it is a useful

Apart from the bad engraver name here (it's Span_arpeggio_engraver),
this advice is rather old.  It would appear to stem from

Definitely preceding
