It's a comfort thing for many people, as a stronger recoil spring can reduce the recoil

It is an often repeated urban myth that changing the recoil spring reduces the total recoil force of a pistol, which would violate Newton's Second Law.
Changing the recoil spring can change the timing or duration of the recoil motion, in other words move the recoil around, not reduce it.
PERCEIVED RECOIL is highly subjective and dependent on the attitude and perceptions of the person holding the gun as much as the gun itself. The sharpness of the recoil is sometimes perceived as more recoil.
