Mike,
I thought the only rational for using steel braided lines was to help
prevent fading, especially when all the lines are hot.


That wasn't my understanding. As far as I know, they're just supposed to
improve pedal feel. When the rotor gets really hot, a steel braided line
isn't going to cool it down any.
