You got that right! I sometimes feel it too. Physically and mentally.

Anyway, I found this discussion at sportcompactcarweb.com that might be applicable.

Their last statement is "Bigger rotors generate more brake torque, which makes the pedal effort feel lighter without affecting pedal travel." I would assume that bigger rotors would mean more contact area between the rotors and the pads, which would mean that surface area does matter. ???
