As usual, you know not what you speak of. I've done hundreds of alpine descents on a road bike and have never had any issues with brake pads melting.
Neither have I and I reckon I test brake pads a bit more than this bag of skin and bones.
Descending is the reward for hauling your carcass to the top.
