Label Callout Leader Tolerance

I have a map with labels to places that use a graphic image rather than one of the pre-defined ESRI position markers and the callout simple line is drawn from the center of the image. Given the simple line is on top of the image, how can I make it such that the line is either drawn behind the image or with an offset such that it begins a given number of points away from the image center? I had thought this was the leader tolerance in the callout although changing this value does not appear to have any noticeable effect.

In Pro 3.4 I was able to build a callout label with a point symbol as shown in the image below. Adjusting the "Gap" put some distance between the image marker point symbol and the leader line. "Leader tolerance" is used to remove the leader lines unless the distance between the feature's label centroid and the label symbol exceeds the tolerance.

Ah sorry, I reread your question and the issue is with the labelled points themselves. The solution to this question has a clunky workaround where you buffer the points and then label the polygons instead, but below that there's a bunch of things you can try that are done at render time, maybe one of those work.
