I would say way out of context.
Many shooters shoot low pressure/light loads and use fast pistol powders to ensure proper and clean burn. Things like cowboy or PPC or bullseye shooting.
Of course, these loads may cause cycling problems with factory or heavier recoil springs.
Do what they do and swap to a lighter or appropriate weight spring and all is well.
You can load up fast powders to standard factory specs. These will cycle the HG the same as a load using a 'slower' powder.
I quite like Titegroup and use it in my 1911, XD, and norc m77 all with factory or heavier springs.
Win 231 is pretty much the gold standard for the 1911 and the 45ACP. This is a fast powder with a burn rate very similar to Titegroup. How many kegs get burnt up a year in IPSC and other Action shooting matches?
For reloading, you really need to look at the context AND application. There are rarely any absolutes.
By the way, polymer gun simply means how the grip/frame was manufactured and has no bearing on the recoil characteristics or tuning/cycling of the slide (that is up to the recoil spring and gas system if so equiped). Every pistol above the frame uses a 'metal' slide and barrel.
