I use it all and in different amounts depending on the circumstances and road condition,(dusty ,gravely dry old , new ) and I dont think you can apply everything that you do in a car and use it on a bike./ I dont actually brake much in normal riding.
On some surfaces there will become a point where you need to release front brake pressure because it feels like it's going to wash out on you, or you have to change direction/duck around whatever has suddenly got in front of you not all emergency stops a a straight line situation. and you may need to head for that escape route.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
