Thanks Jean, those solutions work great.

You can do
\rhythm {
\override Score.SpacingSpanner.spacing-increment = 0.5
4.~ 4
}

I actually don't see any technical reason why \tempo 8*5 = 69 should be
rejected. (I just tested the parser change and it didn't seem to cause trouble).
Anyway, this works:
\tempo $#{ 8*5 #} = 70
