I started this with the belief that relative octave notation is easier
to write (for some people) but absolute octave notation is easier to
read, and thus the expectation that many examples would be simpler using
absolute pitches, or the new \fixed c'' {}.
However, there were not so many examples where a fixed octave reference
would really help.

One of only two examples in Learning where a single \relative was bad
advice.

Documentation/learning/fundamental.itely:625: the passing note and a
slur:
This pair of examples changes the entry order of the pitches, so would
be easier to read with  \fixed c'

The example is a case where a single \relative applied to parallel
voices might be practical.
It would line up better with its re-arrangement below if we use \fixed
c'

The other example in Learning where the single outer \relative was
really bad advice.
