The resistance doesn’t bother me at all. In fact, I like it.

I played alto sax in the Army for 4 years and was a brass player in my youth so I barely notice the resistance.

I do find that it helps with my air efficiency though, meaning I can play longer phrases without needing to take a breath. It also makes me feel more intimately connected to the instrument, as if I have finer control over the sound with less effort than the 37D and 32D
takes.
