    I am guessing the stronger the alcohol, the more powerful the solvent, and less time needed to "infuse". Right?
    That's probably the idea.  The high alcohol content would also serve to dessicate (dry - remove water) from the zest, whereas the lower proof wouldn't do that.  Might be a flavor difference there, the essential oils are leaching out eventually even with 80 proof.
