Thumbs up ALDA Adjustment Affecting Shifting?

I just adjusted my ALDA tonight and boy that pepped the engine up.

My question is...now my transmission shifts ultra smooth...firm but smooth
I used to have a pretty 'solid' 1st 2nd shift (doesn't everyone?) and now its just as soft as the other 2 unless I stomp on it. Could the ALDA adjustment have caused this?

I don't have ANY flaring whatsoever and the shifts are solid declines in engine speed with medium pedal (moving along pretty good but no flooring it).
This only showed up after my last (and maxed out) ALDA adjustment...I thought something went wrong!
Could the extra torque/HP be making the transmission act like it is supposed to?
Could the quicker spool up do this? (my guess is yes)

I am way happier but was just wondering what could have done this...I will check my ALDA tomorrow to see if it is/was leaky at any setting apart from the maxed out one and possibly caused my crappy shifts before.

The auto is nice and peppy now...leave little stripes of rubber taking off
