I think more often than not a lot of the criticism about the lack of response is more related to going from worn tires to full tread. You could go from a worn RE050A to a new RE050A and feel less responsive steering because you've now got full tread to squirm about.
Thread resurrect! I even put on some new bits and I was feeling like the car was pushing a bit, but when I looked at my entry speeds, they were equal too or better than what I was seeing with worn tires and what felt like a more neutral entry.

I think your hypothesis is right on here.
