why do we have to specify a list for the
VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing while e.g. for the
StaffGrouper.staff-staff-spacing you can define single items and also all
the other vertical spacers like default-staff-staff-spacing,
nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing, nonstaff-unrelatedstaff-spacing etc. accept
single values?

\score {
  \new PianoStaff \with {
    \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing.basic-distance = #35
  }
  <<
    \new Staff { c''1 c'' c''2 c'' }
    \new Staff { \clef bass e1 f e2 d }
  >>
}

and here is part of the log:

GNU LilyPond 2.17.23
…
warning: type check for `staff-staff-spacing' failed; value
`((basic-distance . 35) . #<unpure-pure-container #&lt;primitive-procedure

`list'
