Can you be more specific? Is the tread stiff or the switch? Usually a stiff switch is better than a soft one I reckon but it should not be too stiff until you cant actually push it. if its the thread then try putting some lube on the o-rings and threads. Hope this helps

Silicon-based lubricant on the thread will loosen things up.

Isn't a twisty a LOTC by default? Usually a thread lubricant silicone based would work.

Hello UWAK
It's normal, that the Z52 needs harder to press than the Z57. No need to worry about
Best regards

I too have a Z57 to compare, and the L1 is much stiffer. After a few days, I got used to it. In fact I welcome the stiffness and I use more twisty action on the L1. Maybe that the way a twisty is............

A little lube after you take it apart should solve any problems. Seems to be the SureFire way to fix yoru switches a little lube.
