I'm sorry, I should have been clearer what she actually measures and not
just posted the image! I hope you figured it out anyway!
What she measures is the stave-space. So, you can see her scale as a
staff turned forward 90°. It's a direct relational measure it doesn't
depend on fontsize or anything.

Thanks for this one more scan, Peter.
So have a look on how that compares to LilyPond:

(I should have created a larger image, but that is too late now. Anyway, it
is still possible to see the distances on my example above)
The numbers in red are the ones that differ from your scan. Also note that
the distance between the clefs and the time signatures is way larger in
LilyPond when compared to her example. This is one what bothers my eye the
most on all these examples, to be honest.
I think that we should balance these distances, her examples are looking
much better than the current output of LilyPond IMO.
What do you think?
On a general term, I think LilyPond should adjust to contemporary music
notation standards where applicable, and as far as I know Goulds book is
today the most comprehensive account for contemporary standards that we
have. It's the latest update to use a quasi software engineering phrase.
Best
Peter
