Plant some seedlings or seeds next to the trunk .Then graft the seedlings to the  marcott tree in a year to give it a good root system.   Fire :  )

I had some bunches for the first time this year.I liked the fruit but it is only about 8 oz fruit which is okay for me.A lucky few had the chance to buy it from me.Nice orangey overtone and creamy.There was an early crop and a later crop on the fruiting tree.I had some uneven ripening on the later crop.Might be the tree is being pushed hard by a large rootstock as i topworked a big old tree.

"I thought inadequate chilling led to buds that develop leaves and flowers. So low fruit production not poor fruit quality?"

Also leads to off season fruit and poor quality.

30 years of growing lychee

They do not self regulate.Yes a branch can over load but it can also be that the fruit is not fully ripe your pics show unripe fruit is this the current condition?Not enough chilling leading to mixed signal at flowering = poor fruit
