For most shooting I use the spot meter.
I have less auto focus problems because its after only 1 are as compared to multiple areas.
Have you tried this method, I have a m5 which I love.
I guess you probably mean 1-point AF, where you have a single AF target (in the centre of the screen or EVF, unless you move it)? The spot meter is an exposure metering method which is available on the EOS M5 and M6 (and many others) which doesn't affect the autofocusing but has a very strong effect on the exposure. Just clarifying for the OP. I too have an M5 and find the 1-point AF useful, though its usefulness is unfortunately limited when on its smaller setting (which I would otherwise prefer) as several aspects of functionality are lost at that setting, along with a fair bit of focusing sensitivity. Luckily, its larger, standard size is still quite nicely small and specific.
