When I first used Reds I made many typing errors and wasn't able to get away from it. But when I returned to the key switch, I lightened my touch and all went well. I used to be heavy handed on my KBs; but once I began feeling the effects form using heavier switches (finger strain/fatigue), I suddenly have a lighter touch--I just can't take the pounding I had been doing on heavier-switch keyboards, which was my doing rather than a mandate because of the switches I was using.
Key switches are a matter of personal preference; and switching from heavier to lighter or the converse, depending on one's preference, can be tricky or simply feel non-doable. I understand what you're saying: Reds are difficult to get used to if one prefers heavier switches. I think age and decades, many decades, of typing have taken a toll on my hands; and it was time for me to go to a lighter switch--there's an admission of aging from me--man, talk about 'Reeling in the Years (good, old, Steely Dan song).
