I have found that leger lines in Dorico for cued music are far too spindly, and I increase them by 1/4 space to make them more visible.
I'm not sure offhand the percentage difference between cued notes and grace notes, but I'm sure it's not far.

Re: "durational equivalent" name?
Probably something close to "metric modulation," though in the case above it's showing that the half note remains the same tempo.

Re: octave line question
I really like the simplicity of the upper staff, though I would break the beams.

Re: Bar numbers in concert music
I number every bar. It takes a little time to clean up sometimes, but it is always worth it in the time saved in rehearsal.

Re: Dorico 6 released!
I'm eagerly awaiting approval from the "boss" to purchase the update!
As a persnickety composer, I can't wait to run the proofreading tool on my existing compositions and see what (Dorico thinks) I've missed.

Re: Score Modern - a text font
I'm vacillating between really liking the noteheads and not liking them. Very clear to read!

Re: About the use of rehearsal marks
I prefer to use measure numbers, and I use boxed rehearsal marks (which are also measure numbers) at obvious phrases in the music so that musicians don't get lost.

Re: boxed/unboxed instrument name changes on staff
I have the "to piccolo" in bold font, and "piccolo" in bold font and boxed.
