I have noticed that I don't need to adjust my Swift derailleur when packing.... probably because I have to remove it to pack it in the first place.
I think it's because the Friday's rear triangle pivot is just behind bottom bracket, so the chain rides around the chainring as the bike folds. The Swift's integrated rear triangle/bottom bracket pivots as single unit, so chain tension is not affected.
