You can simplify this a bit using markup functions.
Here is one just for the stacked extensions.
Regarding having to enter all these exceptions, is pretty much necessary
since there is no standard for what to name a chord, much less how to
format it. So, I think the expectation should be that serious chord symbol
users will need to customize their one's chords anyway.
For example, what you call a Maj7 6 9, I'd call Maj13. Neither is right,
or wrong, it's just an editorial choice.
So, you and I would each need a different chord exception, regardless of
the formatting, for the same chord.
Once you accept that maintaining your chord spellings is understandable and
necessary, it becomes more of a task of making them easier to use and
maintain.
