Although not doubting your suggestion, I would be very interested to
know if there is such a thing like a document describing a "best
practices" for writing/engraving music.
There definitely is (though I'd hardly call any of them a "document").
The most prominent work at the moment is Elaine Gould's "Behind Bars",
but there are others that are very good, some more dated than others:
* Ted Ross - The Art of Music Engraving and Processing
* Kurt Stone - Music Notation in the Twentieth Century: A Practical
Guidebook
* Gardner Read - Music Notation: A Manual of Modern Practice
* Clinton Roemer - The Art of Music Copying
