%in% doesn't generally mean 'nested in' in R. It is a set membership test and 
will return TRUE for those labels in Line that are also in Set and FALSE 
otherwise. 

Did you mean Score~(1|Set/Line)...?

If you did, bear in mind that , combined with the fixed Set term, (1|Set/Line) 
implies a random Set grouping effect as well as a fixed effect - not sure that 
makes sense in your circumstance unless Set is a continuous predictor. May be 
safer to define SetLine<-interaction(Set, Line) and do
Score~Set + (1|SetLine) + (1|Block)
