Actually, the C++ coding does take the stem directions of the tied notes
into account, but in our cases, they point in opposite direction and so any
tie direction will be equally good or bad.

Yes, that's why I claimed this strange effect only happens for middle-line
ties.

The up/down decision seems to be fragile as hell.

As it's a centre-line (i.e. Y-offset = #0) problem, this reminds me of
numeric rounding errors (inaccuracies): sometimes, the result is < 0,
sometimes it's > 0, but always very close to 0.
