Then there is brake configurations to take into consideration and total weight of rider and bike. I was trying to stop a 650lbs total package with a single brake disk. This probably stressed the fluid somewhat, but I never had boiling issues.
The pads were certainly more important, as well as seals, but with both of them good, why not finish a proper package with good quality fluid.
