    High salt levels create a slick feel -- I personally don't like it, except in the ocean, where there are OTHER benefits, like waves and interesting critters to swim with or after -- but lots of people do. That's a function of the salt -- some people who do NOT have SWCG's still add salt to achieve that feel.

    The salt levels in SWCG pools (3000 - 5000 ppm) will definitely reduce eye irritation compared to very fresh water. Really fresh water (low salt, low TDS) usually feels 'squeaky' on my skin.
