in file chord-name.scm there is this function:

(define (accidental->markup-italian alteration)
"Return accidental markup for ALTERATION, for use after an italian chord root name."
(if (= alteration 0)
(make-hspace-markup 0.2)
(make-line-markup
(list
(make-hspace-markup (if (= alteration FLAT) 0.57285385 0.5))
(make-raise-markup 0.7 (alteration->text-accidental-markup alteration))
(make-hspace-markup (if (= alteration SHARP) 0.2 0.1))
))))

and there lies the problem.

the raise of 0.7 is too much, and is not related to the font-size property, so if you set a small font-size, the sharp and flat sign will not be raised proportionally.

in my opinion even the space between the note name and the alteration is too much.

Here you can see much scores with italian chords taken from the web:

as you can see, the flat and sharp symbols are not raised
