CFM I do not find that much difference, for IAE it is seriously noticeable. So non-issue, even the REV seem to give more pull. Would definitely not bother SETO for brake temps, but admittedly I have never been trained to like the procedure anyway.
Dropping the gear early to increase cooling before landing? No. Just good taxi planning and gentle footwork. Alternating L/R brake use is not worth mentioning to you, neither is the V(lo)ret trap.
Personal habit is no ABRK and then MAN only below 100 kts, one good squeeze down to vacating speed. Have no way of knowing the benefit, if any.
Somewhat contrary to the above: Out of HRG at OAT 36+ where the taxi is long, leaving the stand above 240° would be a dead end unless seriously windy. From close to 300 the brakes would cool down only very reluctantly when stopped. The lower fuel weight will be your advantage.
