For your fingers, Topre switches are just rubber domes that actuate mid-stroke and bottom out distinctly. Personally, I have never been able to not overshoot the bump on Topres, so I have never experienced a fundamental benefit of Topre's force curve over other better rubber dome keyboards, such as Key Tronic or BTC.
On the contrary, I have experienced pain in my fingers from using heavier Topre switches for a longer time. I have also found linear Cherry MX Black to be tiring.
I think that to avoid stressing your fingers, a light stroke is beneficial, avoiding hitting the bottom hard is beneficial. Both of these factors count, not just avoiding bottoming out.
If we're going technical: the weight of a switch in practice should be measured as the total area in the force graph, measuring travel to the point where you stop pressing, when typing normally. How far you press depends on your typing style with that particular switch. A tactile bump coinciding with actuation could help you, as could a force increase after actuation which is preventing you from pressing down further. I have said many times that these properties is why I prefer Cherry MX Clear: they feel lighter to me than many other switches, because they fit how I type on them ,despite of its spring being known to be quite heavy.
A good rubber dome should be light and not force you to press it hard to the bottom. The feel at bottoming out should be distinct but not hard. It could however give you good spring-back when you hit the bottom.
It follows also that a low-profile rubber dome switch keyboard is not necessarily worse than a full-travel switch keyboard. It depends on the force of the dome and your typing style.
Similarly, a light linear mechanical keyboard (Cherry MX Red or lighter) could be bad for you if you always press each key to the bottom hard.
BTW:
"Membrane" is an actuation mechanism. IBM Model M has mechanical switches backed by membranes. The proper term I think you are looking for is "rubber dome".
"Chiclet" is a style of keycap, not a type of keyboard. There are keyboards with mechanical switches that have chiclet keys. Example: Tesoro Gram XS. There are also some vintage keyboards with chiclet keys and mechanical switches.
