You managed to miss most of the point. I'm not saying your rotors are [censored]. I'm not saying your pads are [censored]. I'm saying the reason rotors "warp" is most often due to uneven pad material transfer.

I'm saying, to paraphrase and flesh out the picture, if you have "warped" discs, throw them out, because you can't permanently remove the problem. Then if you season the new rotors properly you avoid most metallurgical issues you might ever encounter. So season your new ones before hammering them.

Then if you bed the pads in properly you eliminate most of the reason for improper material transfer. So bed your new pads properly.

Then, treat them right...don't sit with your foot on the brake after a hard/long stop because that leads to material transfer issues. Don't overheat them because then the material can smear leading to transfer issues. And so on.
