Well I'm not going to argue with SAAB's recommendations, but I will have to think about the physics a bit.
Probably has to do with the cooling area of the disks. When the pads are clamped on the disks, there is less surface area available to disipate heat, so it is better to minimize the time the brakes are applied.
Sorry, about the misinformation, seemed logical but apparently wasn't. I'm an engineer but not a specialist on brakes, I work on more transparent things.
