Just adding my two cents to this debate. In my humble opinion it's pretty clear what "12" in this context means as Lilypond's syntax is always about the divisor. c4 is always a quarter of a whole note. Therefore c12 would always be a twelth of a whole note, thus a third of a quarter note. And c7

Hello Werner, I just suggested these value as this seems to be what is commonly found with music (and it is rhythmically viable nontheless). Basically we’re rounding a division to the nearest power of 2 (it does not make a lot of sense to use 7 4th notes or something like 15 8th notes for such
