You know, it would not be difficult for the onboard computer to track the total amount of braking applied, and periodically reduce regen (as needed) to ensure the rotor gets ablated.It'll vary by vehicle, but a hard stop will employ the brakes. You want the wheels to spin a few times while the calipers are engaged.
Oxidation builds up and over time that digs into the surface of the rotors. This can cause uneven heating in light braking and more surface ablation from the rotor, which leads to premature aging of the rotor.
Basically, gotta keep those rotors polished!
