You are misinformed. Zwift climbs feel half as steep if you leave the trainer difficulty setting at 50%, but it takes the same amount of power to cover whatever the route is and you would simply go slower. All virtual trainer platforms require similar power and effort as outdoor rides, because they all simulate real world physics.
