    know that would probably be another separate issue).
    
   
Further searching for philomelos (which was a fork of musicxml2ly that was 
apparently reintegrated into lilypond in the commit I referenced earlier) led 
to the following:

https://github.com/Philomelos/lilypond-musicxml2ly-dev

which contains the following in its release notes:

v0.1.13:

added the command line options --nsd / --no-stem-directions to ignore stem 
direction indications given in MusicXML, and use lilypond's automatic stemming 
instead.

You might try using the command option --no-stem-directions or --nsd and see if 
that eliminates the spurious stem direction commands.

HTH,
