Yes, it has - and fortunately that's what \unset does for us! :)
Also, i've just found something that may be useful for you:
\set ignoreMelismata = ##t
works like \set melismaBusyProperties = #'(), but it can be used in
lyrics context (therefore you can ignore melismata in one stanza and
don't ignore it in another one).
You can find more information in Notation Reference, chapter 2
(specialist notation) -> vocal music -> stanzas -> Stanzas with
different rhythms.
cheers,
