Having cranked out piano-vocal-guitar pop tunes for a certain major publisher, using Sibelius (which, at the time, could not be told to ignore lyrics when spacing), I concur.

That explains a lot. I've seen some god-awful spacing in recent pop-song anthologies, and the biggest publishers seem to be the worst.
They also don't seem to be too careful about syllables lined up with the wrong note either. I've seen some blatant errors in that respect.
