Oct 9, 2019 at 16:28 comment added Selvek I've also seen quite a bit of music that changes time signatures on nearly every bar. That lets you write freely, while still using the bar line to add emphasis where you want it. It can get a bit cluttered though.
Oct 9, 2019 at 16:25 comment added Selvek As a choral singer I've seen lots of very old music, originally written without bar lines, with modern bar lines added for clarity. We know in these cases that the emphasis and phrasing follows the musical phrase, rather than the artificial bar line. But having the bar lines (and bar numbers) is critical because how else are you going to get a bunch of singers to start at the same place? Not as big of an issue if this is music for a single performer, but it solves the accidental ambiguity.

Oct 9, 2019 at 14:48 comment added Tim After a bit more thought, and some unexplained dvs, what would happen when a note was sharpened, then later naturalled. Would there be a need to continue with natural signs or not..?
Oct 9, 2019 at 14:35 comment added Carl Witthoft Of course, you could always put in bar lines (with as many meter changes as you like), and add instructions that downbeat emphasis is to be avoided.
