Not really sure why grav pong wouldn't be supported. Clearly the ship has artificial gravity and while it may not be reversible it's definitely alterable and we also know that there are inertial compensators, I mean otherwise the wet mop budget alone on military starships pulling 4g and 5g burns is going to be insane.
Crank the floor gravity to 2g, then turn it off then turn it back on. Then off then compensate for a 5g burn. It's going to look like the inside of a strawberry smoothie blender in about 50 seconds. Not pretty.
