As far as I know, optical spacing is an adjustment between notes with up
stems and down stems (at least that's what the essay says).

In this case, the adjustment you would like to make is between notes with
stems in the same directions.  Are there optical corrections for notes
sharing a beam?  AFAICS, this example looks bad mostly because of the
asymmetry in the beam lengths on the left and right sides of the d.

Thanks,

Carl
