I could take offence if I didn't know you were dead right in all respects! On the subject I have to admit to topping up a Dot 5 Kelgate with Dot 4. Other than looking terrible even that didn't affect the braking.
The truth is imo that all seal controlled self adjusting brakes are a pain and a spring return caliper with shim or similar adjustment is better for all but long duration endurance racing!
