That is, unless you have regen.

There are days where I drive to work and run errands and don't even
touch brake pedal at all - regen provides dead stop easily.

Only if emergency arise, I use both regen and mechanical brakes
and combined I'm sure they are more effective than even modified
brakes alone.
