Because this is debugging an attempt to write a cadenza in a score. I only discovered skip-of-length and mmrest-of-length when trying to align parts to a cadenza and now I believe I need to use them for this purpose. This is a minimal example of something which doesn't seem to work as documented. Five eighth notes is a small subset of the actual cadenza.
