Since I switched to 28 mm tires from 25 mm and adjusted the psi to 85 front and 95 rear, I do not find the ride harsh but firm. I got 8,000 miles out of one set and still had miles to use on the front without one flat. Hard to beat that.
If you don't "give two cents' about why we choose what we choose, why are you bothering to post in this thread? Nobody said that they were going to pry those Gatorskins out of your cold dead hands.
Do whatever floats your boat, but what I don't get is your tone that apparently judges other peoples' choices and priorities.
