Hollow steel door? I would imagine Styrofoam is best. I have seen what I think is the reflective stuff but I can't imagine it making that much of a difference with how thin it is.

What's the manufacturer of your door?

Expensive? They are just a pair of rods.

Well every comment here is close. I currently fix and install garage doors and openers.
If it's Styrofoam insulation then you are probably fine but if it's actual wall insulation then it's probably going to be an issue. Every bit of weight counts but it's ok to add extra tension to springs if a bit of extra weight is added. If you remove weight then they have to come back and remove the extra tension anyway.
If you can manually lift the door without much struggle then it will probably take 5-10 years before the opener breaks it's sprocket or grind the gears away. If the opener is 15 years or older then just leave it since that's when they start having issues anyway. Good springs last 6-8 years.

Because we all are constantly up to date on what is and isn't misinformation and there certainly isn't nefarious people out there.

Same with those street interviews. Look at how many people simply look and walk by vs how many actually stop to talk. You just get the weird confrontational people who talk before they think more often than not.

And what is the solution to that?

I install garage doors, don't paint it. It takes a decade for the sun to deteriorate it but one coat of paint to ruin it.

It's not really pride when you have to wear it anyway.
