Alberto: My understanding of how the \voice commence of the { \\ } construct influences the position of notes comes from http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/multiple-voices.
Some of the examples show notes in "middle" voices automatically "shifted." Perhaps these would answer some of your questions.

Sure, but \voiceThree is in both examples. The only difference is the \stemDown command.
