Upgrade Brake or Upgrade Technique?

Here's my stupid issue, love some feedback from those more experienced then I.

When I really get immersed and into a race, I get harder on the brake pedal. Basically, the force my leg applies tends to go up. I know this is not good technique. I still seem to be somewhat smooth applying the brake, but the pressure I push when at 100% is more then is needed to register 100% on my Fanatec CSL LC brake pedal on the stiffest bushings.

This leads me to looking for a pedal set that has a higher LC rating as I wish I could turn it up how hard I need to push to register 100%. I need to step back though and be honest with myself that this is really a me issue and not a gear issue. If I had better technique, this would not be an issue.

Thing is, I'm having fun pushing harder. It is what feels natural to me and it takes me out of it when I lessen up and pay attention to having delicate inputs.

What do you think, should I go for some Meca Cup 1s with a 200KG load cell or work on my technique?
