I have always used \relative for pitch entry, and now usually use \relative f
{}.
With absolute pitch entry, not only is there extra typing but also a non-zero
chance of an odd note or two being entered in the wrong octave undetected; with
relative entry any octave error is immediately noticeable, since it propagates
through the rest of the piece.
