Aaron,

I had another question. The MeasureCounter boxify function does not work if we 
change the staff to Rhythmic staff.



It works perfectly if you add the Meeasure_counter_engraver  and \boxify 
MeasureCounter for the RhythmicStaff
%%%%
\version "2.22.0"

boxify =
#(define-music-function
  (grob-path) (key-list?)
  (define proc (grob-transformer 'stencil
   (lambda (grob orig) (grob-interpret-markup grob #{
    \markup \override #'(box-padding . 0.25)
            \override #'(thickness . 2)
            \box \stencil #orig #}))))
  #{ \override $grob-path . stencil = #proc #})
\include "english.ly" \header {tagline = "" }
\score {\new RhythmicStaff {
  \override Score.SpacingSpanner.strict-note-spacing = ##t
  \set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1/4)
  \set Staff.midiInstrument = #"Grand Piano"
  \key c \major \numericTimeSignature
  \time 4/4
  \clef treble
  \startMeasureCount
  \hideNotes b2 c
  \unHideNotes a c'4 g
   \stopMeasureCount
  \bar "||"}
        \layout {
              \context {
                     \RhythmicStaff  %%%% Here is the change
                     \consists Measure_counter_engraver
                    \boxify MeasureCounter
                        }
                }
        \midi { \tempo 4 =92}
}
