Yes, more or less like that. I add some more categories though: Light-Minus, Light, Light-Medium, Medium, Medium-Heavy, Heavy, and Heavy-Plus. "Light" is my normal "feel seating", because I have neck-turned to achieve that perceived feel pressure. Out of a 100-200 round batch, a few might reach "Medium", yet I've been surprised with a "Heavy" a couple of times!
My seating technique is to adjust the arbor press head so that the seating arm is at about 45 degrees downward when the seating ram rests atop the die with a bullet/case to be seated. I grasp the press arm so that the ball of the handle is at the back of my palm, with thumb and forefinger resting around the turning axle and elbow resting on the bench. Seating is by a slow downward wrist flex.
I think that it helps for long range elevation and peace of mind? You can say what you want about using "hand feel", but one thing that I'm assured of though, the statistical possibility of having a light seated cartridge followed next by a hard seated cartridge out of the loading box is eliminated (for good or for worse?).
