Lack of feel could also be caused by poor adjustment (rather than poor design).
Maybe the bite point could be lowered a little so your foot gets less of a "purchase" on the lever ?
Depending on the design, this can perhaps be achieved by juggling the stop screw mentioned above and the length adjuster on the operating rod.
Similarly, the crank ratio of the lever will make a difference ... shortening the foot lever side or lengthening the linkage side will reduce feel ... not that you probably have much scope for adjustment here but some designs do have a minimal amount (and then there is the potential to modify).
