My point is simply that its not an $8k investment over time, its less than that, potentially lots less than that. Maybe its only a $4k investment plus saved time from going to a shop/dealer for each brake job (rotors not pads). Anyway, its not as simple as a flat $8k. For added benefits already mentioned in the article (plus no dust). Again, valued differently for different people. I don't think anyone is saying CCB is cheaper.

Agree completely. Especially if you plan to get aftermarket BBK the fronts alone will cost near $4k. The initial 8K is shying away a lot of people.
But remember 4.3K only get you parking sensors and headlight washers.
