It is finished when it is finished.  Since the last argument of a \tweak
is a music expression, and a \tweak produces a music expression itself,
a sequence of \tweak followed by a single music expression again is one
music expression.

This is different from \override which is a self-sufficient music
expression (it does not take a music argument), so for combining
multiple \override commands, you need to wrap them in { ... } or
<< ... >>.
