1. ALL lowering springs will shorten the life of your struts, period. Some ride more harshly than others, the prices differ, but all will kill your struts. If that doesn't bother you, then it's your cheapest and easiest option.
I always wondered if this was the case with all(including moderate drop) lowering springs and was kinda hesitant on installing them.
What’s the reasoning for the premature failure?
Increased spring rates causing shocks to operate at high rate of cycles/speed?
Or any other stress to shock assembly itself?
Is there any credible data to back up such claim?

I’m not doubting your statement, just trying to fully understand the root cause.
