If you write
blurb = { c e g a }
{ \blurb \relative c'' \blurb }
is \blurb a fragment of music, or a fragment of ly input? I am afraid
it is both: relativable music is a weird thing.
And
\relative c' { \blurb \blurb }
is different from
\relative c' \repeat unfold 2 \blurb
The reason that it is different is not that one is "ly input" and the
other is "music", but that making \repeat unfold do something different
from \repeat volta would be a total nuisance, and so we _explicitly_
programmed this case to behave differently.
