As previously noted in kieren's email, you need to add "Staff." before
TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f in order to specify the context that you want the
override to take place in. In the Internals reference, you can see that the
TimeSignature engraver lives in the Staff context, and as explained in the
learning manual section 4.3.1 (using barlines instead of time signatures, but
exactly the same situation) when you want to override the visibility of
something, you have to tell lilypond which context it's in, if it's not the
implicit Voice context.
