I had the Z24mm and Z50mm for about 6 months. I switched from the Zeiss Loxia lenses 25, 35 and 50mm in my search for a single camera system for all shooting. I knew the Loxia lenses well, so I was able to compare. The Z24S is a great optic, and the resolving power is certainly no less than the Loxia 25, it is perhaps even a bit higher resolving than the Loxia when viewing at 100% (Loxia on the A7RII and Z24S on the Z7).
But the "optical sharpness" (if such a thing exists) is significantly higher on the Loxia, meaning that the perceived sharpness is greater, without any trace of harshness from the Loxia. The overall look of the Z24S is smoother, and softer yes. I missed the impact of the Loxia lens a lot, and ultimately went back to the A1 with the Loxia 25, but it is very subjective, I could not say which lens is "objectively" better.
