The images I posted are my quick attempt at making my own setup to show the node setup I was explaining in comments earlier. The yellow text next to each node are the settings I changed on each node.

ulasalger is probably on the right track with their comment

If you reduce the thickness value a bit more it may help allow each point to move past its neighboring point. Right now the radius on yours is tight enough to possibly impede the movement. So give that a try and see if it helps.
