I would also say this definitely belongs here. If anything we should try to make use of it and retrieve knowledge from the occasion. I would be happy if there would be even more explanation rather than examples. Of course an example can help a lot, and just yesterday I wrote a reply consisting of not more than one line of Scheme. But anyway I think more resources about Scheme (and if only in the lilypond-user archives) may serve as an opportunity to open that path to more users. I think that is worth more than reducing the traffic for people not interested in the topic.
