The further you have to press the strings down to make contact the more intonation issues become unmanageable, and I believe you end up actually wearing frets faster because of the added pressure.
I like Jescar's 43080 wire for my acoustics when I've done refrets. Very close, or possibly the same, as what's is typical on many guitars these days. It's not especially tall, so you really need to get your action, and possible neck/fb all correct before putting [any] new frets in, unless you want to end up with essentially little improvement.
