That's a good tip, thanks. At the moment, I'm advancing the pistons a tiny bit without wheel in bike, to get the pads a bit closer to the rotors. But when pads wear, distance get tiny bit bigger and I have to re-advance the pistons a bit all over and over again.
Am I correct that with overfilling, I get the same result, but with the difference that distance between pad and rotor will remain the same regardless of pad wear?

You can overfill the brakes. Instead of the normal bleed block use anything slightly smaller (Or pads a bit used and a spacer) . You'll have almost no room for the pistons to retract, so better have perfect rotors and a perfectly centered caliper.
Pretty common problem with girl racers, another way is having new pads all the time.
