Are you really sure about that? I just tried the following
example and I cannot see any difference between the two
scores:

\version "2.6.0"
\layout{
 raggedright = ##t
}

\score{\relative c'{
\override Score.TimeSignature #'print-function = ##f
\time 3/4 c c c |
\time 5/4 c c c c c |
\time 4/4 c c c c |
}
}

\score{
\new Staff \with {\remove "Time_signature_engraver"}
\relative c'{
\time 3/4 c c c |
\time 5/4 c c c c c |
\time 4/4 c c c c |
}
}

It's really easy to check such a thing with a small example
before sending misleading information to the mailing list.
