Kinetic effect of soft vs hard/rigid materials

Hi Colleagues, Just another confusing thought element with general reading and would appreciate your perspectives, and advice…. In the case of pain at plantar-central aspect of calcaneus due to compressive forces, 1) what is the kinetic impact of placing a soft material (e.g poron) vs a hard material (high durometer EVA) on the plantar calcaneus? 2) while the softer material may ‘cushion’ the heel, doesn’t it prolong the timing of heel contact and hence the compressive forces on the heel
