The following line should get a pair of {} to make the different items 
sequential, not simultaneous:
{ \shiftOnn \override NoteColumn.force-hshift = -0.5 <d, g,>2 }
It may work with simultaneous music ( << >> ) in this specific case, but 
you’ll be better off, have more legible code and fare safer using {}.

Whereas the following would not need any braces around \lower.
