The latest amendment of the Airbus Fcom's advocate(more so than before)the use of Auto brake on Landings.The 'one'brake application,whether it be immediate(medium)or modulated(low) does a better job that the human pilot in avoiding 'high' temps.
With runway to spare they suggest ,18wheeler's application,(manually) at 80knots..
