You probably mean why the # is requiered? Well, historically most arguments in lilypond needed to be prepend by #. Due to much work, mostly by David Kastrup, we nowadays can omit the # pretty often. But markupmode is a special thingy. Most kinds of arguments still need it and all strings, even: \markup \simple #"foo" Can't say more without diving deep into the source-code. David?
