The essay says explicitly about an adjustment between notes with up
stems and down stems, but the issue i'm talking about is present in
the musical example provided there (in the second measure).

Have you tried compiling the other example i provided, the less
crowded one that is working correctly?
Try measuring distances between stems in the following:
\version "2.13.45"
\new Score {
\repeat unfold 8 { c''16 [ d'' b' c'' ] \noBreak }
}
The distances are not equal. Optical corrections are made there.
