To me as a user, \once\override is used to change the next note (or items attached to it) and \single\tweak is used to change the next item. That \once\override applies to the next timestep, and the following note incidentally happens at that timestep is an internal detail when I'm writing a score. >From a developer's POV there is a different concept involved, but I doubt that a normal user really cares about this. To me it's basically the same as the \set / \override distinction. It might be a different concept to anyone who knows the internals, but to a user both are used to change the default.
