There will be a "swamp" remaining that unnecessarily slows down all subsequent "business." The solids will then move more slowly ("inertia of the pile") and the water will run off. Ergo, more and more solids remain, and eventually, one has to "poke" manually. At the latest then, you will be advised to set a slope from the pot towards the drain.

Is it an ultra-flat siphon?
Joking aside, there should be some slope, definitely no incline, even if it has worked so far.

So simply screwing a clamp a bit further towards the ceiling won’t work: The pipe coming from above would first have to be shortened, it doesn’t just slide together. Yes, the structure is not that old yet, I’ll contact the plumber again.

Do it. I can confirm the swamp thing from my own experience. That in the end there can be a genuine pipe blockage followed by evidence preservation procedures and re-laying as well. It would be good if you could agree beforehand and the plumber lays it correctly. You can't avoid properly laying it with a slope. The pipes are even exposed, so it's not a big deal.
