Making all custodes point up

From LilyPond wiki

It is possible to make all custodes point up by setting the neutral-position property to a large value.

\version "2.24"

\paper {
  indent = #0
  ragged-right = ##t
}

\markup \with-true-dimensions  % work around a cropping issue
  \score {
    \new Staff \with { \consists Custos_engraver } {
      \override Staff.Custos.style = #'mensural
      \repeat unfold 3 { e''1 \break }
      \override Staff.Custos.neutral-position = #20
      \repeat unfold 2 { e'' \break }
    }
  }
