Does anybody have an opinion about this strange "Gwizz port" and some ideas to employ it creatively? Thanks in advance.

Not really. I think the Gwizz port is more of a cute oddity than a useful game asset. The problems are:

1/ In default form it does not actually behave as a port. In other words, it does not transfer cargo price from land to water (or water to land).
2/ It only has a small station cargo capture area.
3/ Due to it having to be placed at the edge of the water, most of the small capture area is not on land.
4/ The result is that it is pretty useless as a station.
5/ The amount of pax it generates can be made up with one large house.
6/ If you really need troops too, a barracks has a small footprint and will make troops.

Note that you can fix 1/ and 2/ by hex editing the Gwizz port, but you still have the other issues. IMO it makes more sense to use a standard station and a standard port for better cargo coverage.
