rest in chord

Good evening, good night and good morning to you.
I only ask this.
In the attached image the only way to resolve the chord with the pause inserted is stratification?
Thank you.
Lorenzo

The snippet shows 3 voices (1 stem up, and 2 stem down).  The rests of the "restchords" apply to the stem down voices and are there to visually complete the lower voices time value of the bar.
NWC won't allow you to create this restchord as NWCs internal rules require that the rest be shorter or the same length of the note it is chorded with.  As it is actually non functional in this context I usually place a text "rest" for the visual aspect.

Thanks, Lawrie,
despite the translation of Google translator I understood your explanation well. It is the simplest method. Thanks, good afternoon.
