Too heavy a spring can cause ejection issues or failure to feed with light range ammo.
Additionally a heavier spring causes more muzzle dip as slide goes to battery.
A lighter springs downside is beating up gun, with hotter ammo.
It’s a balance. If you’re shooting lighter range ammo exclusively, use lighter RS.
If you’re shooting both range and SD ammo, I’d use a heavier RS.
And to answer your question; I use a light recoil spring with wimp range ammo for the “softest shooting gun”. Subjectively.

A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.
