Just out of curiosity, do you use the IBIS system or the lens stabilizer? I ask because I haven't noticed any shutter shock issues with the 12-32 on my E-M10. I use the in-lens stabilizer, since it slightly outperforms the 3-axis system in the E-M10, and now I'm wondering if that might have an effect.

I generally use IBIS (Lens Priority = Off), and the example images I shared in this thread were taken using that setting.

At your suggestion, I just repeated the 32mm test (same settings and target), this time using the lens IS (Lens Priority = On), and the results were more or less the same - the photos taken with the electronic shutter were consistently and obviously sharper than those taken with the mechanical shutter.
