IME Kevlar are only used when DH MTB in the alps. Better braking but don't last very long. I can easily go through four sets of pads in a week but then again I'm doing circa 100,000 feet of descending in 6 days riding.
For road bike use in (assumption) London/the home counties then sintered for longevity.

Thanks, & @amey
I’ll stick to the OEM Hope organics till they wear out, then try a new set of sintered.

Pads: are new-fangled ‘Kevlar’ types from the likes of Discobrakes an appreciable upgrade over standard organic/resin?
