NORMAL driving. That does not mean driving it as a Prius it means driving it as it should be on the public streets.
You said one I said 3 your own link puts it in the middle.

Of course, each driver has to make his or her own decision.
Years ago I decided turning rotors was a waste of time and money. So I fit new rotors with new pads. Car makers agree. They now fit rotors that are designed to minimum safe weight intended for one set of pads.
If you fit new pads to worn rotors you are wasting money and putting up with second rate brakes.
Up to you, of course.
