I am familiar with this "chair without wheels" technology you mention. The slope is steep enough that the tilt is still annoying, but a chair with legs of unequal length might have solved that.

The efficiency was, however, very close to 100%. You're just measuring the wrong thing.

we have found that this is steep enough to make a desk chair roll– kind of irritating

The only premise I could sense was related to the rolling.

As you seem to have focused on how fun the exercise was, you are more than likely right.
