I'm setting a piece in 2/2 meter. One part consists essentially of quarter notes always off the beat. Is it acceptable to typeset this as in the following:
\itieu0o\ca o | \ttie0\ca o\qa o\qa o\qa o\itieu0o\ca o | \ttie0\ca o ... where the | indicates a barline. The reason I ask is that I've seen the same material set as follows: \itieu0o\ca o | \ttie0\ca o\qa o\itieu0o\ca o\ttie0\ca o\qa o\itieu0o\ca o | \ttie0\ca o ... The difference is that the central quarter note has been broken up into tied eighth notes, presumably because the second one is on the second beat of the 2/2 measure. There doesn't seem to be the same reluctance to carry half notes across the beat.
