Im with Ex Machina on this one. How sure are you that they are not just using a play of words to make you believe that the yaw movement will be from the gimbal and not the aircraft?
They can easily make the drone fly in a way that will look to the user thats wearing the goggles think that the AC is still flying the same direction while yawing the gimbal, when in fact the drone will be the one doing the yaw motion.
Im inclined to believe that with the goggles mode the drone will be the one yawing and not the gimbal since the gimbal on the Mavic has a very limited yaw motion range, it will just be automatically flown in a way that will make you think that the yaw is happening on the gimbal. Same way they make you feel you're flying a plane on the new Fix Wing mode.

Very sure since I saw it on at least a couple of reviews and because it says so in the user manual. How sure are you that your Mavic really flies and that it's not just an optical illusion created by DJI to trick you into buying?

Not as limited as you probably think, but you normally can't easily tell because it's not directly controllable by the pilot. Have you ever yawed sharply while in sport mode and seen how much the gimbal is able to compensate? Don't take my word for, it though: I'm just some stranger on the internet. Watch the videos and look at the user manual to see for yourself what I'm saying about the goggles.

Well, I can only speak for myself, but I've flown airplanes and it takes more than a tilted horizon to make me feel like I'm flying one again.
