I have also noticed with a LW that it tends to have a max distance beyond which, however hard you swing, it just goes higher not further.

BUT surely that is part of its advantage.

However hard you hit it it goes 60 yards. Excellent. If you hit it consistently well and feel confident with it then that's your lay up distance. Any time you need that shot you know it's there and you can swing hard and confidently and know you'll be there or there abouts. I used to use my 60LW in those sort of situations as well as for more delicate little shots over bunkers.

I know some people don't like hitting half or 3/4 shots and for some a full swing is easier to produce.
