I vaguely recall an earlier thread where it was mentioned that carbon brakes reduces the need for T/R, so the reduced engine wear can offset some (but not nearly all) of the higher cost per landing. Forget the exact subject of the thread (it was about a year ago) but it had something to do with some carriers changing their standard ops to land without T/R.
