In Sect. "7.3.2 Entering Lyrics", the following text is not entirely
correct, since \lyricmode in itself has nothing to do with if you
use explicit durations or \addlyrics/\lyricsto.
"There is a difference between @code{\addlyrics} and
@code{\lyricmode}. @code{\addlyrics} and @code{\lyricsto}
ignore all durations and aligns syllables to notes; @code{\lyricmode}
uses the durations specified."
I would propose to write something like:
"There are two main methods to specify the horizontal placement
of the syllables, either by specifying the duration of each syllable
explicitly, like in the example above, or by automatically aligning the
lyrics to a melody or other voice of music, using @code{\addlyrics}
or @code{\lyricsto}."
Possibly, the text should also contain a hyperlink to "7.3.4 The Lyrics
context".
