I have no idea what you mean by "it", and _where_ you plan to place \!.
The example wrote <>\! (and since there was no \bar "|." following, it
is reasonable to expect this as an excerpt from continuing music), and
if the next note starts with a dynamic, the "smorz." will merge into
that dynamic which is not wanted for.

No, the output is not correct.  Have you even tried the examples I gave?
