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.
It's been mentioned multiple times - there are many options that don't seem to be meaningfully less puncture resistant while offering better rr, feel, grip, etc.
