the quicker you answer the Q the quicker you'll realize the point.
Do you get your wheels rechecked every time you change tires?
Do you get your engine inspected every time you change your oil?
Do you get your injectors cleaned and flow balanced every time you change your gas?
Is there constant wear on all of these items? yes. Point?

What about hot spots that will bulge out and yet contain small groves that will be considered OK by dial indicator?

I'm replacing the pads b/c they are squeeking and putting off tons of brake dust. The car is female driven and 38K miles.
thanks

Nothing!
those are great to have on your rotors.
So maybe later they could develop into a large cracks and maybe even a half of your rotor falls of while you driving on the highway and you hit a semi truck carrying some kind of toxic waist and spill that **** all over the freway killing 100 ppl or so.
Cracks are not that important.
