What you suggest sounds all so common-sense, but LilyPond still does not get it... If I implant "\omit Score.TimeSignature" and "\undo \omit Score.TimeSignature" into my code instead of the previous commands, I get this - see screenshot.
But if I do something really basic like: \version "2.24.2" \language "deutsch" \relative c'' { \time 3/4 c4 c c c2 c4 \time 3/4 c4 c c c2 c4 \omit Score.TimeSignature \time 3/4 c4 c c c2 c4 \undo \omit Score.TimeSignature \time 3/4 c4 c c c2 c4 \bar "|." } it works as expected. It really seems to have something to do with the scaled rhythms - that is my guess. Unfortunately my exact situation is not covered in the NR - at least I could not find anything.
