Incidentally, what threw me off was the phrasing in the manual:

4.19
Makeup
A document may have a titlepage, a colofon and some pages that are
not directly related to the main part of the document. Mostly these
pages are not numbered and can do without headers and footers.
Because their layout needs extra attention we prefer the word makeup
for defining their specific layout.

Since my makeup pages indeed don't have page numbers, I presumed they
wouldn't have headers either. I may have read too much into that, but
perhaps that passage can be improved?

Hi Mark,

makeups don’t have either headers or footers, but have the document
layout unless otherwise specified.

You are right: makeups don’t have header or footer /texts/, although
they don’t have the space for headers and footers removed.

they have them but their state is empty (headerstate etc parameters)

Hans

Thanks for the clarification both of you, that was exactly what I was getting wrong.

Best,

Mark
