There isn't a fun little adaptor that'll allow me to move them down by a couple of centimetres?

Offset pad holders do exist. Never used them though

My girlfriend uses them on her Aurelius. They work pretty well. Hard to find though.

Hard to find

I'd want to be hard to find if I'd ever sold any of those. The braking load exerts a torque about the bolt axis. On one side, that will lend to tighten the fastener, so you might get away with it (but beware of precession). On the other side, it tends to loosen it, rotating the pad up into your tyre wall and slicing it open.
