IST costs a little bit more, but I think it is worth it. They have a better selection of materials, and more features to simulate real world application. If I were you I would pony up the little extra and get IST.

This error and many others have been corrected in the current version ASD 6.0 - you may want to consider this value next time you design your annual spring.
