I think we are all in search of that perfect pad: low/no noise, no glazing, good modulation, safe for street.

Yeah, sadly our nearly 4000 lb cars generates a ton of heat braking. On a scale from street to aggressive, the MX72-plus is more aggressive than the blues, so you may still want to give them a try to see if they are enough for you. Depending on your track and how aggressive you drive, you may find them sufficient. For example, I am able to drive buttonwillow with no glazing (fewer hard braking zones), but can’t do Laguna. For reference, the advertised operating temp ranges for the compounds are:
Blues: 0-550C
MX72-Plus: 50-750C
ME20: 150-800C
You’ll notice as you go more aggressive the cold temps fall out of operating range, hence the inconsistent cold bite feel.
