It may. I did brake. It's just there are "laws of physics" mentioned in the manual : your advice can't beat them.



This would lead to brakes overheating and subsequently failing: this is why engine braking is especially important when driving in mountains - to release the brakes' heat burden.
'Laws of physics' are that by the time you moved your foot from the gas pedal to the brake pedal when you realised something was in the road took too long, simples and the foot doesn't have to be over the stem in an elongated pedal, you're wrong again
