I've always considered \relative as an operation that should be applied as
close to the actual notes as possible. This gives the least suprises, if
any.

  \relative c'' {
    \new PianoStaff <<
      \new Staff { \time 2/4 c4 e | g g, | }
      \new Staff { \clef "bass" c,,4 c' | e c | }
    >>
  }

This is, indeed, asking for problems...

  \new PianoStaff <<
    \new Staff { \time 2/4    \relative c'' { c4 e | g g, } | }
    \new Staff { \clef "bass" \relative c,, { c4 c' | e c } | }
  >>
