feel free to provide the stats on how many brake pads for ev’s are being replaced every day
No. The burden of proof is on you.

All the "what maint's do you do on an EV" I've read are like tyres + some other bits and bobs I can't remember
Now look up threads for the Bolt EV/EUV, or just search "bolt EV brake rotor rust." On the very first Bolt EV forum result I got, one responder mentioned not noticing rust, while the next one pointed out that they lived in California and that OP was in Canada. Road salt will absolutely do a number on exposed elements, which includes the brakes.
do you think the average ev driver around the world is worried about road salt?
