I though this sort of crap died out with “all bikes are better with raiser bars” circa 2004?
If you arrived at a track and it was smoother than average, meaning bottoming out was unlikely, would you soften your suspension? No you’d firm it up!
Conversely you would soften the high speed compression for a very rocky track.
The only direct controls over bottoming out are the progressiveness of the spring and low speed compression (yes high speed rebound, and high speed compression play a part too but those are secondary).
For me, it’s on the firm side of middling (although I have no suspension bikes at the moment!). Paraphrasing someone else up there, it’s either as soft as the track and your riding will allow, or as hard as you and your riding can cope with, if it’s optimum then those should be one and the same.
