You seem to be doubling the amount of ellipses. Is this intentional?

Yes. In Chinese, the standard way of writing ellipses is having six dots, instead of three. Further reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis#:~:text=In%20Chinese%2C%20the%20ellipsis%20is,vertical%20space%20as%20two%20characters).

That page does say the dots are commonly vertically centred - i.e. ⋯⋯, rather than …… - is that correct?

Hmmm, interesting. Nevertheless, from my experience, people tend to write ellipses like this ……. It's also what I get from SHIFT+6 on a Simplified Chinese keyboard... I think both will do as long as they're used consistently 😅
