Saw this video where it is suggested that pad taper affects pedal feel (travel) and swapping them is a good idea.

I haven't noticed this myself but I can pay attention next time.
My theory about pad taper is that the caliper has different piston sizes, the bottom part of the caliper may be hottest, and/or the pads simply don't wear well with a lot of heat.
I wonder if anyone has experienced a lot of taper with higher temperature compounds, or if added brake cooling reduces taper on stock pads. I've added the SS deflector kit to my ZLE but don't have any data yet on whether it helps.
