When you get a chance, maybe have a shop
vacuum bleed the slave cylinder and all four corners again and see if it stiffens up the clutch pedal.
Vacuum bleeding consist of connecting a hose to the nipple of the slave/caliper's bleed valve and other end submerged in brake fluid. Then pump but keep the reservoir filled with fluid, allowing it to circulate. This pushes fluid through the lines and eliminates any air pockets.
If afterwards it still feel light-ish, then I guess maybe it's just the MO of an unrestricted slave..
It's hard to say without testing it myself and making my own hypothesis but what you're concluding sounds logical, that the lack of resistance would make the pedal feel lighter.
I'm also only making this assumption because you're the third person to mention a pale feedback, so there might be something to that.
