I hope you realize the difference between
<<{...} {...}>> and <<{...} \\ {...}>>.
In the latter case, two separate voices will be created where the
first one has the stems pointing up and the second one pointing down.

If you just want to add some simultaneous spacing notes to insert the
dynamics and don't want to affect the stem directions, you should use
<< { d4 c\trill } { s4\> s8. s16\! } >> without the '\\'.
