It's a hard job, and I'm glad you guys do it. I just want to set the physics straight, especially when claiming that ABS use results in higher pad temperatures. That is simply demonstrably false.

You know how ideal gas law should theoretically apply to everything, but doesn't?
Your application of thermodynamics is also ideal, but doesn't actually apply.
Pressure = heat; ice melts faster if you're pressing down on it.
Imagine overactive use of ABS, from way, way too much pressure. What happens now?
This is very, VERY basic example.
