I'd love to know of a company that makes a softer / more compliant ride that stock, too, but don't know of any.

Have you ridden in a M235i or 240i? Is that the kind of ride you're looking for?
Although Dinan's kit is using stiffer springs they are linear springs rather than progressive springs.

"Spring rates are nearly 18% stiffer in front and 5% stiffer in the rear."

"Actually the main reason it feels softer is because we are using linear springs versus the factory progressive springs. So, while the rate is technically stiffer then stock, it behaves quit a bit different and ultimately isn't as harsh."
