Another thought, which is a musical solution rather than a lilypond tweak. You can use an equivalent time signature that may make it preferable in terms of readability. 12/8 is logically 4/4 (at a different tempo) and you use triplets. This can be easier one the eyes instead of all those dots.

Hello Ming, here’s the best I could come up with. I remember that in hand-engraved scores, this is resolved by shifting the two notes further apart and placing the dots close to each one, which I now mimicked, albeit very poorly: the dot placement looks very odd now. Perhaps you’ll want to
