It's not zero acceleration, it seems zero to you because it's very small
but it's not zero.

This is what happens to accelerometer 1 in my animation
https://www.geogebra.org/classic/vtvnm8uv where you don't notice the
contraction and stretching of the springs just because the variations
are too small to be visible.

But just increase the force of gravity to realize that it doesn't show
zero acceleration at all.

Look what happens to accelerometer 2 which is also in free fall in a
gravitational field: does it seem to show zero acceleration?
