It's required in CA roster guns, along with the "LOADED WHEN UP" indicator on the top of the slide. CA, and some other states, also require a pretty severe "Drop gun" test for certification.
My state doesn't require those features but I special ordered a CA version for those features, especially the tactile indicator that allows you to know the status of the gun in the dark or low light.
I've posted on this many times.
Regarding ease of magazine drop, mine does just fine, even with a light, empty, magazine. No notable difference between normal configuration and when you remove the slide and hold the magazine sensor lever up out of the way.
If you are having problems, check the magazine and it's housing for rough spots, lube the sensor lever a bit, and most important, check the slide lock and it's spring.
