Those functions seem to work well, but it seems like you're reinventing the
\tag.  What about this?

%%%
\version "2.26.0"

musicA = { c4 d e f | \tag #'score { \textMark "Yo" } g a d c }

\score {
  \keepWithTag #'score
  \new Staff \musicA
}

\score {
  \keepWithTag #'part
  \new Staff \musicA
}
%%%
