Autoset Standard or Soft for FLs?

Autoset Standard or Soft for FLs?
Hi. As I ask in the title, what comfort option would better serve to treat FLs having EPR already set to 3?

RE: Autoset Standard or Soft for FLs?
The soft algorithm responds slower to FLs and events than the standard one, i.e., the pressure increase is less aggressive. This means that during the slowly increased pressure period, one might experience additional events because the targeted treatment pressure has not yet been reached. Therefore, you can have fewer events with the standard setting. 
Newertheless, some people are sensitive to abrupt pressure increases, for them the soft algorithm is a tradoff.

Thank you! I think, then, that I'll leave the default "standard" as it is.
