I'm pretty sure it's the 1/8" of flex on the sliding calipers that let the pad surface move around all over the place. It's so bad that the pads will sometimes end up against the center-hat of the rotor and grind/squeal like the world is ending.

I thought I had some bad/worn calipers, which is why I ended up replacing all four corners... and the new ones are exactly the same.
