“Toyota said the front brakes of the car showed “severe wear” and damage” Hmmm. That seems very inconsistent with other stories regarding the front brake wear patterns.

That's not exactly what either NHTSA or Toyota said, either. The brakes showed some wear, but not the sort of pattern you'd see if there was heavy pressure on the pedal. There was wear more like a light pressure on the pedal at the same time as the accelerator.
