Well, how often do most people drive such that they experience brake fade on the street?

I think that for the most part OEM pads offer good stopping power and cold bite for general street driving. Safety concerns and magazine testing prolly requires that. What they care less about is dusting and longevity, two of the other tradeoffs when it comes to brake design.
