[William Rehwinkel]

I think what OP was referring to is that two ties are placed on top of 
each other (it looks a bit thicker). Perhaps something like the 
following would be preferable.

-William

\version "2.24.2"
\relative {
  \override Score.SpacingSpanner.shortest-duration-space = #3
  <e'_~ f_~ g^~ a_~ b^~ c^~> q
}
