Sorry for my over-reaction. That's what happens when you reply after short and intermittent sleep. Suffice it to say that it should be considered a given that a spacing issue will be addressed by a competent engraver, it's only a matter of which approach is used. Hopefully we can agree that as regards approaches to spacing issues or for that matter as regards a mid-measure double line there's more than one approach (and probably more thn one opinion about whether something is too much work or not), and various factors pertaining to the specific project can affect which approach is chosen.
