Really? What's the risk of doing Score.LyricText? Non-spaced
context.grob dots are all over the docs; do we need to change
them?

I don't know where in the documentation this is, but Lyrics Explained
(2.1.2) explains why this particular (i.e., LyricText) example is
necessary.
Incidentally, just trying it shows that it's necessary:
\version "2.12.2"
Melody = \new Voice = melody { b a g b }
Words = \new Lyrics \lyricmode { \override Score . LyricText #'font-
shape = #'italic These are the words }
badWords = \new Lyrics \lyricmode { \override Score.LyricText #'font-
shape = #'italic These are the words }
\score { << \Melody \lyricsto melody \Words >> }
\score { << \Melody \lyricsto melody << \badWords >> >> }
