The fact that the mag is top-mounted does seem to make it less annoying to reload prone than other bullpups would seem to be.

As mentioned elsewhere, training and time does help: In my personal experience, yes: for a short while learning how to reload the P90 series is something of a pain in the rear: you are spot on that the process is so different than any other weapon. But, once you have had time to learn the tricks its not that hard nor significantly slower than any other method. Which isn't that it isn't slower: it is by a little bit. No way to avoid it really, as the fastest way I've found is to point the weapon down while doing so, so bringing it in and out of battery is where the extra time comes from.
