This is implementation: the Voice context is created when the
notes/rests/commands (or rather: Requests) are processed. I think it
is perfectly legal to have
\score { \notes
\times 2/3 <
\type Staff = sa { ... }
\type Staff = sb { ... }

}
If \times would create a Voice, this would cause creation of 3 staffs.
