Well no, Zoro also has full body flexibility. Like he can jump and spin in mid air or just contort his body mid air in all manner of positions.
Theres really not much difference between Santoryu Nitoryu or Ittoryu Zoro because in the end he's still the same strength and the difference in number swords just affects how many techniques he has access to.
Zoro's fought close to as many fights with Nitoryu and Ittoryu as he has with Santoryu irregardless of the actual strength of the opponents.
So in the end The number of swords mainly affects how many techniques Zoro can use and not really Zoro's actual strength

To be honest I think this stuff is highly situational. For example Zoro was very much doing jack shit with all three swords to Daz and then won with one sword. Of course here you would say Zoro picked up on haki to beat Daz but then it still shows that he actual number of swords wasn't helping him. He just had to get stronger IN THIS SITUATION.
Similarly Zoro fought Ryuma with two sword style and got forces into a sitaution where he needed a quick finish since Ryuma was faster than Rashomon, which is Zoro's fastest two sword technique. Zoro then switches to One sword style to trade power for speed and then finishes Ryuma.
Like it's greatly situational which techniques work best in which situations and it's actually possible to find That according to the sitaution, a lower number of swords is better than an higher number.
Of course in general three sword techniques carry more general power but techniques and speed also affect fights and can influence what's better in a situation than another

I think 3 sword style Zoro is obviously stronger. Like some pointed out the reasons, even if it didn't made any sense, it doesn't have to. It's fiction and so generally thr more swords, Stronger Zoro is. If i am not wrong, his strongest attacks are 3 sword style based, like he did against Mihawk, Kuma, Kamazou or even Pica, he rely on 3 sword style for final attack, it's his signature moves or distinguish him from othet swordmans.
If we go with the story in pretending that it makes any sense, the third sword should provide an extra defense (his right arm arcs might become awkward but then the right side of his trunk is protected from downward slashes for example) as well as clipping opponents when he streaks across.
I think really that it keeps his opponents guessing and throws them off. But it's probably a lot more important that he feels complete and that his head is in the game.

He didn't land any three sword techniques on kuma. The only technique that actually hit kuma was one sword style shishi sonson because he needed speed
Also he's finished off Ryuma and Daz bones with one styles and also finished Monet and the punk hazard dragon with one sword style. Theres even situations like when he fought Hawkin's straw man and had all his three swords but chose to only fight with Two swords

You haven no gauge for the word "considerable" and also it was a point in yhay encounter that Zoro was still injured from the killer fight.
I mean if Oda wanted to make a point of kyoshiro's strength, he could've easily added a scene that Zoro was in full health but as usual, Zoro has to get nerfed for the story to have any tension

Look at the DC:
720 pound ho cut 2 houses
1080 pound ho cut a mountain
Zoro strongest attacks are with 3 swords. He has no finisher in 2 swords style.
Zoro always complain when he does not have 3 swords. And he is shown to be far more efficient with 3:
-Was having difficulties against the cat brother with one sword but beat them without difficulty with 3
-Same thing against Hatchan
-In Nitoryuu against Killer the fight was even but once he got a third blade (and not eve a sword) he one shot Killer.
Adding a third sword allows Zoro to one shot people he was previously stalemating against with two swords.
The difference between Nittoryu Zoro and Santoryu Zoro is as big as the gap between extrem-diff and low-diff.
