To add to my original post, an added benefit of shifting tablature fret numbers
of a chord out of a straight vertical column is that the space between
tablature lines can be decreased because collisions can be avoided between two
numbers by, for example, moving a number just to the right of the number on a
higher string (there are subtleties in the behavior according to the specific
music, but those details can be left for later). Of course, if there is not
sufficient horizontal space between tablature chords and subsequent chords or
numbers, then the reader may not know whether the chord is a chord or a series
of notes.
This feature is somewhat like standard notation when notes in a chord or
multiple voices would collide if the note head is not flipped such as the b'
and c'' in the following tiny example.
\version "2.23.13"
\absolute {
<b' c'' e''>2}
