I have identical concerns
The transients associated with this design concern me a great deal. Thus care should be exercised when looking at data. If the data is given from tests with the watch stabilized and static in different positions, I expect that the results might not be too bad. On the other hand, if the tests reflect and dynamic movement (which of course simulates the real world of wearing the watch on the wrist), we might see very different and quite logically worse results.
Then of course we get to the use of the word "tourbillon". I have trouble grabbing that well understood term and applying it to this watch which is most definitely not a tourbillon.
It is however a most unusal piece.

Zenith Defy Zero-G from an engineering point of view ...
Different comments have already been posted in various forums about the polarizing exterior design of the Zenith Defy Zero-G (ZZG). I would like to add some thoughts from a pure engineering point of view. An ‘exploded view’ of the ZZG movement was present...
Very good analysis Heinrich!
I am also doubting any efficiency graph will be published, but am amazed at the daring path taken for this watch.
