Well, this is the first time I've heard that the \crossStaff shouldn't be
applied to the lower notes.  The documentation (
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-keyboards#cross_002dstaff-stems
) shows an example with the \crossStaff in the bass clef staff:

\layout {  \context {    \PianoStaff    \consists "Span_stem_engraver"  }}
{  \new PianoStaff <<    \new Staff {      <b d'>4 r d'16\> e'8. g8
r\!      e'8 f' g'4 e'2    }    \new Staff {      \clef bass
\voiceOne      \autoBeamOff      \crossStaff { <e g>4 e, g16 a8. c8} d
     \autoBeamOn      g8 f g4 c2    }  >>}
