I'm not sure why. See below.

"To double the duration of any note in an xtuplet, add the character D to
the symbol for that note. This will decrease the expected number of notes in
the xtuplet by one."
If not using the postscript slur package, I would code this
(t f2 | fDx3 )t af | ...
With postscript slurs ("Ap"), you get real ties with
f2 t | fDx3 t af | ...
BUT the exact locations of the start and ending of the tie are still being
negociated.
