I really wouldn't worry about shutter shock. Seriously, it hasn't affected any of my shooting thus far (through tens of thousands of shots over the past year). Other M6ii owners here have had similar experiences.
In fact, I just performed the exact same test as the author of the blog you linked to here, using the same camera (M6ii), same lens (EF-M 18-150), same focal length (122 mm), same shutter speed (1/60 sec), same IS (on), same ISO (100), etc etc etc.
I took two shots in a row, handheld, using the 2-second self-timer. The first was with the Mechanical shutter, and the second was with the Electronic shutter. I can detect a difference in the images, but it's quite small and only when viewed at 100%. I'd really consider it inconsequential (for anything I'd like to shoot with this lens), and it certainly is nothing like what the tester posted in the blog above!
I wonder what accounts for the difference. He shows a very pronounced doubling of the image. (Or maybe it's even a multiple image.) You show just a slight vertical motion.

For a real good test you would need several lenses and bodies ?
Some people have tried with different lenses (but one copy of each lens), but I don't know if anyone has done the test with multiple bodies. Maybe someone can interest Roger Cicala in doing this kind of testing.
I'm kind of bummed out about this, actually.
