Dude, you should be careful what you say as well. You may have some experience, but ....
Tender springs are in common usage in European racing. You will find most of the top touring car teams run tender spings. They aren't progressive in the same way as a progressive single spring. I don't profess to know the ins and outs of running tender springs, but I do know they are being run on a lot of race cars. Dave Coleman wrote about it in his column in SCC a few months back. I should probably do some more research to understand it better. But I do know it's not quite as simple as it sounds.
