Anything you base that expectation on?

All before the \\ is in one voice, sharing ties, stems, and other
things. Multiple differently-timed ties in one voice are not supported
by LilyPond. It may or may not work with tieWaitForNote set to ##t, but
it would appear to make more sense to put the first two parallel parts
into different voices.

Parallel music and implicit voices: that's expected. I could pick out
the respective manual passage, but then the weather makes me lazy.

Sure, because now you had the ties in different voices, even different
staves.
