Yes, in that scenario almost 2 times as much kinetic energy have to be converted to heat

I agree. Safety first. For me it is not about breaking records. You are making me think twice about my decision. It sounds like you are actually missing some stopping power. I thought the standard brakes would be safe and sufficient, even for spirited driving in the mountains (using common sense on public roads).
