they may say that the overhanging pad is better than the pads wearing into the spiders of the disc... or the "problem" is because of the SRAM calipers....

if anything, i'd remove some material from the caliper, not the epoxy/CF (with steel thread inserts) frame mounts.

i see both overhanging and too low calipers on bikes... the low ones are easily remedied... the high ones, not so much.
the "too low" ones make a low "buzzing" sound at speed, all the time, not just when the pads get worn out.
