Going to have to agree with your mechanic for the most part. Lowering springs aren't ideally matched to the stock struts and will always be a compromise. You can get away with them for a while, but you should replace your struts with better matched ones.
I had 25mm lowering springs from Mann Engineering and they blew my stock struts after 15,000 miles. Mann said that was even longer than they expected from their lowering spring.
Sure, stiffer feels better in the transitions, but ride suffers. Take a ride in a properly set up car and you'll get a better picture about what a car is supposed to feel like. Stiffer isn't always better!
