I struggled for several years trying to increase cadence but find that averaging about 59rpm works best for me.
I got some easier gearing on my most recent bike thinking I could climb at a faster cadence. Mostly, I just climbed slower at the same cadence.
But I sure did like having the 53/11 instead of just a 53/12.
It's all very individual and yes, I am an outlier.
