This sounds like someone who has never actually used a recent Apple trackpad and who is making things up.
It's simply false that a large trackpad makes clicking harder. There's no physical hinge anymore.
It's not a function of the trackpad, but the ergonomics of having to click which I am not finding comfortable.
I have a MBP 2019 15", MBP 2020 16", and MBA M1. I'd love to see the M1 trackpad on a 16" device.
Not to mention that the clicking firmness is programmable:

I think you have been fooled by how clicking on a MacBook trackpad works these days... It's definitely not getting harder to click the larger it is, BECAUSE NO PHYSICAL CLICK IS HAPPENING.
I am not simply turning off tap to click - a large trackpad makes clicking even harder.
I've found that using even a basic BT mouse is so much more productive than the built-in or external trackpad (need to disable trackpad when mouse is connected unless you use an external keyboard as well).
