when i follow this calculators advise, i should have a 50N/mm rear spring, while in the manual my bike should have a 52N/mm spring... this can make somewhat a difference in behaviour of the bike, so i wouldn't follow this blindly... better is to measure and experience yourself what your bike is doing, bottoming out, or not using most of the available suspension travel...
though i won't argue a lighter spring (in my case) wouldn't work, it's still all about personal preference.
