People keep saying this, but when I sat in one(finally a manual) at the dealership, it didn't feel "too" soft at all. Softer than my 4th, 5th, 6th gen Civics and current RSX yes, but not soft when compared to the Scion tC or 2012 Civic Si. Both of which have the most pathetically uninspiring and "in the middle of having a stroke" grandma-soft clutches I have ever had the displeasure of using.
IMO, if a clutch is too soft it's harder to shift smoothly because there is no feedback. It's like a surgeon performing delicate surgery with his arm hovering in the air versus resting on a table for balance. The balanced hand will be infinitely more careful and easy to be precise with the movements.
