At some point, the internet got the information that this spring is what creates the condition and people remove it. It doesnt.
Sticking clutch could be caused by clutch finger height variation, contaminated clutch fluid, overheated clutch fluid, or lack of lubrication on the concentric slave cylinder. When the spring is removed, it loads the hydraulics slightly, heat from slipping clutch builds within the fluid and then when you want to use the clutch under high stress conditions, it sticks.
This spring returns the pedal completely, so that fluid pressure is completely removed and the hydraulics are NOT loading the slave.
Allthebest, c4c5

So i was looking at mine, removed it just to see what it did, cause i have a high rpm shift clutch sticking problem. The spring is pushing down on the pedal, pushing the pedal towards the floor. I didnt look to much, you think maby the spring was on backwards? I dont really see that happenind, or possible even. Have you seen it though? Cause now i can shift at redline and the pedal will return.
