My understanding is that a voice needs to be associated with a staff in order to

Hello:
Using Lilypond keeps challenging assumptions I have made about WEM
(Western European Music) notation. In most cases, there is a voice
which goes with each staff, but I don't see that the creation of a
voice is part of the staff engraver or any of the engravers that go
along with it.
