Personally I would rather try different brands of uncoated strings. I think coated strings are awful. Strings are very different in regard to how much they wear out your fingers. The same gauge from different brands feels completely different. I play mostly bassguitar so my advice may be wrong but D'Addario is one of the worst for your fingers on bass.

Coated strings just don't do it for me. I would rather try some flatwounds, even on acoustic guitar. They are soft as butter and some of them are quite bright. Maybe look for halfwounds or something like that, I'm not sure if that excists for acoustic guitars but it might be worth to check out. Flat on the outside and round on the inside.
