>As for the direction of the movement, think of it as pushing a globe and not moving a camera.

It's not the style of navigation that feels weird. It feels like they're doing the usual arcball but with some weird multiplier attached to rotations so it doesn't feel 1:1 but something like 1:4.

It's really obvious if you zoom out enough to see the entire globe and grab one horizon then drag it 180 degrees to the other. The globe rotates almost twice in that span instead of ~1/2 rotation.

Edit: or at least it does on my PC and phone.
