The other thing on some of the more complicated door arrangements on some current refrigerators is the length of the seal. Each linear foot of seal is responsible for some leakage of air in or out. These may become more of an issue as the fridge ages.
I do kind of like some of the French double upper door arrangements as they reduce the door swing distance outward and are better in a limited space.

On the other hand, having the freezer section in a drawer limits the amount of cold air lost when you open it. The more often you get into the freezer, the better this arrangement looks.
You want less seal linear footage, then limit yourself to one door.
Small doors aren't better in a limited space. Nobody has a kitchen so narrow that you can't open a fridge door and walk by it at the same time. Small doors just make it a hassle to get things in and out, especially if the fridge is located next to a wall and the door swing is limited to 90 degrees.
