It is known that the slur and tie and phrasing slur printing algorithms 
aren’t very good in difficult situations. We are hoping for somebody to 
come along and improve them… someone with programming skills and a _big_ 
deal of spare time…
You _might_ try overriding some of the subproperties of Slur.details, 
though I figure it will be difficult to find something appropriate.
Maybe try \shapeII from openlilylib as well, it’s much more comfortable 
to use, though in my experience sadly it messes with system/staff 
placement in a way that makes it unusable.

Best, Simon
