Very few elite swimmers have raced in the new TYR suit. So it is too early to say how it compares to the LZR. Speedo dominates so far more athletes race in their suits. I also think the LZR came out first.
FWIW - A top 20 Div 1 men's swimming coach told me the TYR suit was as fast as the LZR. He also told me he wished it would go back to the old days where the suit was not a factor.
I do think Schubert's comments were blatantly pro-Speedo and were out of line with a person representing USA Swimming and the USA Olympic team.
