"less rear brake is more"

im thinking about having these done by my mechanic.Sport Riding Techiques by Nick Ienatsch wrote: A race bike's rear brake shouldn't lock up no matter how hard he rider stands on it. Modify your rear brake (remove pad material, limit brake lever travel, etc.) so that it can't lock up. And don't be misled: The best racers use their rear brakes consistently.
i dunno what he means by "etc." though but maybe my mechanic knows.
what do you guys think?
