I was going to say “I’d be surprised if organ support is a large issue to an adult. We already have long term astronauts and people who are bed ridden for a long time during recovery. I would expect an issue during development though.”
It seems to say that there is a long term impact on connective tissue hardening… but it blames lack of stretching; not lack of downward force. Any regular movement would seem to fix that.
However, internally, organ tissue probably ‘bounces’ more due to gravity during movement… so less gravity means less flex of connective tissue.
> long term astronauts and people who are bed ridden
And those people lose a lot of bone mass, muscle mass, and need physical therapy to get back to normal function in 1G. Two months of bed rest will absolutely ruin you. There's a good reason astronauts need to be fit to begin with!
Turns out there is research in this direction: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2379624/pdf/can...

TLDR: you seem to be right
