Disagree. You have way higher profile riders on the road complaining about all the issues (mostly rubbing and brake noise). Shimano already bumped the pad clearance 10% between their gen 1 DA disc group and gen 2. I'm certain more innovations along this vein are en route in future groupsets. MTB innovations focused on power, minimizing fade, and modulation. Road innovations will be focused on zero perceived lost watts under any circumstances and eliminating idiosyncrasies and irritations.
