My experience on brakes is mostly from motorsport but yes, have no intention of providing spongy brakes. Feel free to DM if you wish to chat further.
You kinda provide spongy brakes with that set-up.
You don't need me to DM you to chat further, you can easily do some research yourself, for example;

If you wish to have advice and help, I'll happy offer a fixed rate for this.

It's not the marketing point, it's the big difference in braking performance and confident.
A low compression housing mean there will be more flex in the housing before engaging the brakes, compressionless mean it will have minimal flex so you'll able to perform emergency stop without the levers hitting the bar and provide greater range of modulation and adjustablity.
Seriously, if you don't put compressionless housing, your bike isn't any difference to a disc brakes bicycle from 2008 that felt spongy and weak.
