For me it isn't about mistakes, but about things amateurs do or, to be fair,
things done by those who have earlier versions of the program or don't
understand the program's vocabulary. When is it an expression, articulation,
text element, graphic element...? Say I want a really big fermata on a page.
What tool do I use? What if my piece doesn't have a chorus and verse? Which do
I use? And so on. What if I have to go from full ensemble to multiple lines of
a single instrument on one page? Layers of these differences in conception can
make for a mess.
