Default Update for Hard Shifts

Haven't been running my truck hard. Waiting for a call back from PHP. I've played with the Shift-Firmness setting and, right now, I have it set for +4 (1-2) , +4 (2-3) , +4 (3-4) and the truck shifts perfect under normal driving conditions on my custom tow setting #2 AND custom performance setting #3. However, any aggressive throttle from gear 1 to gear 2, I can start to feel the hard shift condition so I haven't opened it up in over a month now...

Am I the only one experiencing this? I was wondering if it might have to do with the RPMs at which the transmission is set to shift. If the truck is still pulling hard at higher RPMs, would the transmission shift harder based on engine load? What if you let the truck shift at higher RPMs, when you can feel the power start to cut out, would this allow for a lighter shift based on engine load?

Are these even related?

I really want to get this figured out. I have a buddy with a tacoma talking trash.
